add a user or group to the system
|
--disabled-password
Like --disabled-login, but logins are still possible (for example using SSH RSA keys) but not
using password authentication.
|
--quiet
Suppress informational messages, only show warnings and errors.
|
--system
Create a system user or group.
|
--home DIR
Use DIR as the user's home directory, rather than the default specified by the configuration file.
If the directory does not exist, it is created and skeleton files are copied.
|
--no-create-home
Do not create the home directory, even if it doesn't exist.
|
--gecos GECOS
Set the gecos field for the new entry generated. adduser will not ask for finger information if
this option is given.
|
--group
When combined with --system, a group with the same name and ID as the system user is created. If
not combined with --system, a group with the given name is created. This is the default action if
the program is invoked as addgroup.
