Answer / megastar chiru

64blocks mean to create min size of your home directory. it
is depend on your way of add/creating user.

/usr/sbin/useradd -u xx -g xy -m /export/home/useryy -s
/bin/sh -k /etc/skel useryy will give you 64 blocks output

/user/sbin/useradd useryy ---> this will also add/create a
user with defaults. mean without home directory. in passwd
file will show you default home directory of the user. but
you can't place any files on it. but first syntax we can
create/save files.
