luseradd

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.
