.SH SYNOPSIS
luseradd [\fIOPTION\fR]... \fIuser\fR

.SH DESCRIPTION
Adds an user with name \fIuser\fR.

.SH OPTIONS
.TP
\fB\-c\fR, \fB\-\-gecos\fR=\fIgecos\fR
Set the \f[SM]GECOS\fR field to \fIgecos\fR.
The \f[SM]GECOS\fR field is traditionally used to store user's real name
and other information.

.TP
\fB\-d\fR, \fB\-\-directory\fR=\fIdirectory\fR
Set user's home directory to \fIdirectory\fR.
If this option is not present,
a default specified by
.B libuser
configuration is used.

.TP
\fB\-g\fR, \fB\-\-gid\fR=\fIgroup\fR
Set user's primary group to \fIgroup\fR.
\fIgroup\fR can either be a group ID of an existing group, or a group name;
if \fIgroup\fR is a group name and the group does not exist,
it is created.
If the \fB\-\-gid\fR option is not specified,
the default group name is \fIuser\fR.

.TP
\fB\-i\fR, \fB\-\-interactive\fR 
Ask all questions when connecting to the user database,
even if default answers are set up in
.B libuser
configuration.

.TP
\fB\-k\fR, \fB\-\-skeleton\fR=\fIdirectory\fR
Populate the newly created user's home directory with a copy of
\fIdirectory\fR.
If this option is not present,
a default directory specified by 
.B libuser
configuration,
or \fB/etc/skel\fR if
.B libuser
configuration does not specify a default,
is used.

.TP
\fB\-M\fR, \fB\-\-nocreatehome\fR
Don't create a home directory and a mail spool for the newly created user.

.TP
\fB\-n\fR, \fB\-\-nocreategroup\fR
If a group is not specified using \fB\-g\fR,
use group name "users" instead of \fIuser\fR.
Note that despite the name of the option,
the group will still be created if it does not exist.

.TP
\fB\-P\fR, \fB\-\-plainpassword\fR=\fIpassword\fR
Set \fIuser\fR's password to \fIpassword\fR.
Note that the password can be viewed while running

using tools such as
.BR ps (1)\fR.

.TP
\fB\-p\fR, \fB\-\-password\fR=\fIencrypted\fR
Set \fIuser\fR's password to the password represented by the hash
\fIencrypted\fR.
Note that the hash can be viewed while running
.BR luseradd
using tools such as
.BR ps (1)\fR.

.TP
\fB\-r\fR, \fB\-\-reserved\fR
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

backends.
This option implies the \fB\-M\fR option.

.TP
\fB\-s\fR, \fB\-\-shell\fR=\fIshell\fR
Set user's login shell to \fIshell\fR.
If this option is not present,
a default specified by

configuration is used.

Use user ID \fIuid\fR for the newly created user.
An user ID is selected automatically if this option is not present.

Use common name
.I name

This attribute is only supported in some backends (e.g.LDAP),
and its support may have further limitations (e.g. LDAP schema rules).

Use given name
.I name
for the newly created user.
This attribute is only supported in some backends (e.g.LDAP),
