Add and remove users and groups
This package includes the adduser and deluser commands for creating and removing users.
o Adduser can create new users and groups and add existing users to
existing groups.o Deluser can remove users and groups and remove users from a given
group.
Adding users with adduser is much easier than adding them by hand. Adduser will choose appropriate UID and GID values, create a home directory, copy skeletal user configuration, allow you to set an initial password and the GECOS field.
Deluser can optionally remove and backup the user's home directory and mail spool or all files on the system owned by him.
Optionally a custom script can be executed after each of the commands.
Adduser is maintained on http://alioth.debian.org/projects/adduser/. There is also a development mailing list on http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/adduser-devel/.
