/etc/skel, /etc/skel/
Explanation:
The /etc/skel directory is used to keep a sample copy of files and directories for when a new user has a home directory created. The /etc/skel directory contains files and directories that are automatically copied over to a new user's home directory when such user is created by the useradd or adduser command. The /etc/skel directory allows the system administrator to create a standard environment for all new users on the system. For example, the /etc/skel directory may contain a default .bashrc file that sets some aliases and environment variables for the new user, or a default .profile file that executes some commands at login. The /etc/skel directory may also contain subdirectories such as .ssh or .config that store configuration files for various applications or services. The name /etc/skel comes from the word "skeleton", as it provides a basic structure for the new user's home directory. References:
