Re: How to setup an read-only user account for a whole server with useradd ?

I want to setup an user SSH/telnet account with useradd. The user should have

- read-only permissions for ALL files on the server beginning with the root directory.

- write permission for recursively all files below the directory /user/home/newuser

How do I setup the account and the permissions correctly ?

You might have to use access control lists for this, or use sudo to give this user permission to use cat, less or some file viewer in read-only mode.
