sync-accounts-createuser
SYNC-ACCOUNTS-CREATEUSER(8) chiark utilities SYNC-ACCOUNTS-CREATEUSER(8)
NAME
sync-accounts-createuser - helper/hook program for sync-accounts
SYNOPSIS
SYNCUSER_CREATE_var=value... sync-accounts-createuser
DESCRIPTION
sync-accounts-createuser is invoked by sync-accounts when sync-accounts is creating a local account.
It must perform all of the tasks involved with local account creation except for the actual changes to the password, shadow and group data-
bases.
At the very minimum, it must create the new account's home directory (with appropriate permissions). The supplied sync-accounts-createuser
script does exactly that.
It may also suggest to sync-accounts modifications to the new account's passwd entry.
INVOCATION
When sync-accounts-createuser is invoked, the passwd and group entries will not yet have been set up, so it may not rely on them. sync-
accounts-createuser will not be supplied with any arguments. However, the following environment variables will be set, giving details
about the account to be created:
SYNCUSER_CREATE_USER
SYNCUSER_CREATE_UID
SYNCUSER_CREATE_GID
SYNCUSER_CREATE_COMMENT
SYNCUSER_CREATE_HOME
SYNCUSER_CREATE_SHELL
RESULTS
sync-accounts-createuser should usually produce no output.
It can inhibit the creation of the user by outputting a single line not containing a colon; in this case, a diagnostic message will be
written to sync-accounts's logfile, and the user will be skipped.
Alternatively, it may write out an alternative password file entry, in which case sync-accounts will use the supplied data for the local
passwd file instead of that from the remote host. The line should be in Sys-V passwd file format (regardless of localformat or remotefor-
mat settings). The username field should be taken from SYNCUSER_CREATE_USER, and the password field should be x.
EXIT STATUS
0 All went well, or we wrote a line without a colon to say that the account should not be created.
any other
There were serious problems and sync-accounts should bomb out immediately.
FILES
None.
ENVIRONMENT
See above.
BUGS
The supplied sync-accounts-createuser does not check that it was not supplied with any arguments; nor does it check that the SYNCUSER_CRE-
ATE_* variables are set, or have sensible values.
