Hi
I’m currently working with the linux level 2 lab 14 where I need to instantiate a postifx dovecot email service. This is the lab requirements:
How can I make the second task ? I mean, how can I set up the id ? Because you can’t do it when you are creating a user in Linux with a custom UID, because this id have letters. So i don’t get it how to solve this issue.
So anyone who wants to help, thanks!
Have a nice day!
Hi carlos140!
You can do second task via just adding anita user in mail server after all postfix configurations.
sudo useradd anita
sudo passwd anita
Hi @bhard
But in my case how can I make anita have the “BruCStnMT5” ID ? I don’t get it.
Also do you need to set a password for anita in this lab ? It’s a blank password ? I ask because i don’t know if the python script (I guess, if I’m not remembering wrong) that checks if my lab container is fine or not, works with setting a password.
I was a bit confusing too, when read the task. But BruCStnMT5 is actually the password for user anita
Thanks for the info. I will try the task later. Its a little bit confusing, indeed.
