    hi.

    i am just installing and configuraing mysql and i started to think about
    users that are solely meant to run services. i imagine that for those
    users you wouldn't use 'useradd servicename' because then you'd just
    fill up your /home directory with a bunch of wasted space.

    what is the process for adding these types of users?

    thanks,
    chris.
