luseradd(8)						      System Manager's Manual						       luseradd(8)

NAME
luseradd - Add an user SYNOPSIS
luseradd [OPTION]... user DESCRIPTION
Adds an user with name user. OPTIONS
-c, --gecos=gecos Set the GECOS field to gecos. The GECOS field is traditionally used to store user's real name and other information. -d, --directory=directory Set user's home directory to directory. If this option is not present, a default specified by libuser configuration is used. -g, --gid=group Set user's primary group to group. group can either be a group ID of an existing group, or a group name; if group is a group name and the group does not exist, it is created. If the --gid option is not specified, the default group name is user. -i, --interactive Ask all questions when connecting to the user database, even if default answers are set up in libuser configuration. -k, --skeleton=directory Populate the newly created user's home directory with a copy of directory. If this option is not present, a default directory spec- ified by libuser configuration, or /etc/skel if libuser configuration does not specify a default, is used. -M, --nocreatehome Don't create a home directory and a mail spool for the newly created user. -n, --nocreategroup If a group is not specified using -g, use group name "users" instead of user. Note that despite the name of the option, the group will still be created if it does not exist. -P, --plainpassword=password Set user's password to password. Note that the password can be viewed while running luseradd using tools such as ps(1). -p, --password=encrypted Set user's password to the password represented by the hash encrypted. Note that the hash can be viewed while running luseradd using tools such as ps(1). -r, --reserved The user is a system user. Users that are not marked as system user usually have automatically selected user IDs above a certain value (500 by default). This information is also passed to the libuser backends. This option implies the -M option. -s, --shell=shell Set user's login shell to shell. If this option is not present, a default specified by libuser configuration is used. -u, --uid=uid Use user ID uid for the newly created user. An user ID is selected automatically if this option is not present. EXIT STATUS
The exit status is 0 on success, nonzero on error. libuser Jan 12 2005 luseradd(8)
