.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBuseradd\fR
is a low level utility for adding users\&. On Debian, administrators should usually use
\fBadduser\fR(8)
instead\&.
.PP
When invoked without the
\fB\-D\fR
option, the
\fBuseradd\fR
command creates a new user account using the values specified on the command line plus the default values from the system\&. Depending on command line options, the
\fBuseradd\fR
command will update system files and may also create the new user\*(Aqs home directory and copy initial files\&.
.PP
By default, a group will also be created for the new user (see
\fB\-g\fR,
\fB\-N\fR,
\fB\-U\fR, and
\fBUSERGROUPS_ENAB\fR)\&.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.PP
The options which apply to the
\fBuseradd\fR
command are:
.PP
\fB\-\-badname\fR\ \&
.RS 4
Allow names that do not conform to standards\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-b\fR, \fB\-\-base\-dir\fR\ \&\fIBASE_DIR\fR
.RS 4
The default base directory for the system if
\fB\-d\fR\ \&\fIHOME_DIR\fR
is not specified\&.
\fIBASE_DIR\fR
is concatenated with the account name to define the home directory\&. If the
\fB\-m\fR
option is not used,
\fIBASE_DIR\fR
must exist\&.
.sp
If this option is not specified,
\fBuseradd\fR
will use the base directory specified by the
\fBHOME\fR
variable in
/etc/default/useradd, or
/home
by default\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-c\fR, \fB\-\-comment\fR\ \&\fICOMMENT\fR
.RS 4
Toute cha\(^ine de texte\&. C\*(Aqest g\('en\('eralement une description courte du compte, elle est actuellement utilis\('ee comme champ pour le nom complet de l\*(Aqutilisateur\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-d\fR, \fB\-\-home\-dir\fR\ \&\fIHOME_DIR\fR
.RS 4
The new user will be created using
\fIHOME_DIR\fR
as the value for the user\*(Aqs login directory\&. The default is to append the
\fILOGIN\fR
name to
\fIBASE_DIR\fR
and use that as the login directory name\&. The directory
\fIHOME_DIR\fR
does not have to exist but will not be created if it is missing\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-D\fR, \fB\-\-defaults\fR
.RS 4

.RE
.PP
\fB\-e\fR, \fB\-\-expiredate\fR\ \&\fIEXPIRE_DATE\fR
.RS 4
The date on which the user account will be disabled\&. The date is specified in the format
\fIYYYY\-MM\-DD\fR\&.
.sp
If not specified,
\fBuseradd\fR
will use the default expiry date specified by the
\fBEXPIRE\fR
variable in
/etc/default/useradd, or an empty string (no expiry) by default\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-f\fR, \fB\-\-inactive\fR\ \&\fIINACTIVE\fR
.RS 4

Une valeur de 0 d\('esactive le compte d\(`es que le mot de passe a d\('epass\('e sa fin de validit\('e, et une valeur de \-1 d\('esactive cette fonctionnalit\('e\&.
.sp
If not specified,
\fBuseradd\fR
will use the default inactivity period specified by the
\fBINACTIVE\fR
variable in
/etc/default/useradd, or \-1 by default\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-g\fR, \fB\-\-gid\fR\ \&\fIGROUP\fR
.RS 4
Nom du groupe ou identifiant num\('erique du groupe de connexion initial de l\*(Aqutilisateur\&. Le nom du groupe doit exister\&. Un num\('ero de groupe doit se r\('ef\('erer \(`a un groupe d\('ej\(`a existant\&.
.sp
If not specified, the behavior of
\fBuseradd\fR
will depend on the
\fBUSERGROUPS_ENAB\fR
variable in
/etc/login\&.defs\&. If this variable is set to
\fIyes\fR
(or
\fB\-U/\-\-user\-group\fR
is specified on the command line), a group will be created for the user, with the same name as her loginname\&. If the variable is set to
\fIno\fR
(or
\fB\-N/\-\-no\-user\-group\fR
is specified on the command line), useradd will set the primary group of the new user to the value specified by the
\fBGROUP\fR
variable in
/etc/default/useradd, or 100 by default\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-G\fR, \fB\-\-groups\fR\ \&\fIGROUP1\fR[\fI,GROUP2,\&.\&.\&.\fR[\fI,GROUPN\fR]]]
.RS 4
A list of supplementary groups which the user is also a member of\&. Each group is separated from the next by a comma, with no intervening whitespace\&. The groups are subject to the same restrictions as the group given with the
\fB\-g\fR
option\&. The default is for the user to belong only to the initial group\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-h\fR, \fB\-\-help\fR
.RS 4
Afficher un message d\*(Aqaide et quitter\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-k\fR, \fB\-\-skel\fR\ \&\fISKEL_DIR\fR
.RS 4
The skeleton directory, which contains files and directories to be copied in the user\*(Aqs home directory, when the home directory is created by
\fBuseradd\fR\&.
.sp
This option is only valid if the
\fB\-m\fR
(or
\fB\-\-create\-home\fR) option is specified\&.
.sp
If this option is not set, the skeleton directory is defined by the
\fBSKEL\fR
variable in
/etc/default/useradd
or, by default,
/etc/skel\&.
.sp
Si possible, les ACL et les attributs \('etendus seront copi\('es\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-K\fR, \fB\-\-key\fR\ \&\fIKEY\fR=\fIVALUE\fR
.RS 4
Overrides
/etc/login\&.defs
defaults (\fBUID_MIN\fR,
\fBUID_MAX\fR,
\fBUMASK\fR,
\fBPASS_MAX_DAYS\fR
and others)\&.

Example:
\fB\-K\fR\ \&\fIPASS_MAX_DAYS\fR=\fI\-1\fR
can be used when creating system account to turn off password aging, even though system account has no password at all\&. Multiple
\fB\-K\fR
options can be specified, e\&.g\&.:
\fB\-K\fR\ \&\fIUID_MIN\fR=\fI100\fR\ \&
\fB\-K\fR\ \&\fIUID_MAX\fR=\fI499\fR
.RE
.PP

.RS 4

.sp
For the compatibility with previous Debian\*(Aqs
\fBuseradd\fR, the
\fB\-O\fR
option is also supported\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-m\fR, \fB\-\-create\-home\fR
.RS 4
Create the user\*(Aqs home directory if it does not exist\&. The files and directories contained in the skeleton directory (which can be defined with the
\fB\-k\fR
option) will be copied to the home directory\&.
.sp
By default, if this option is not specified and
\fBCREATE_HOME\fR
is not enabled, no home directories are created\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-M\fR, \fB\-\-no\-create\-home\fR
.RS 4
Do no create the user\*(Aqs home directory, even if the system wide setting from
/etc/login\&.defs
(\fBCREATE_HOME\fR) is set to
\fIyes\fR\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-N\fR, \fB\-\-no\-user\-group\fR
.RS 4
Do not create a group with the same name as the user, but add the user to the group specified by the
\fB\-g\fR
option or by the
\fBGROUP\fR
variable in
/etc/default/useradd\&.
.sp
The default behavior (if the
\fB\-g\fR,
\fB\-N\fR, and
\fB\-U\fR
options are not specified) is defined by the
\fBUSERGROUPS_ENAB\fR
variable in
/etc/login\&.defs\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-o\fR, \fB\-\-non\-unique\fR
.RS 4
Permet de cr\('eer un compte d\*(Aqutilisateur avec un identifiant (\(Fo\ \&UID\ \&\(Fc) dupliqu\('e (non unique)\&.

This option is only valid in combination with the
\fB\-u\fR
option\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-p\fR, \fB\-\-password\fR\ \&\fIPASSWORD\fR
.RS 4
The encrypted password, as returned by
\fBcrypt\fR(3)\&. The default is to disable the password\&.
.sp
\fBNote:\fR
This option is not recommended because the password (or encrypted password) will be visible by users listing the processes\&.
.sp

.RE
.PP
\fB\-r\fR, \fB\-\-system\fR
.RS 4
Cr\('eer un compte syst\(`eme\&.
.sp
System users will be created with no aging information in
/etc/shadow, and their numeric identifiers are chosen in the
\fBSYS_UID_MIN\fR\-\fBSYS_UID_MAX\fR
range, defined in
/etc/login\&.defs, instead of
\fBUID_MIN\fR\-\fBUID_MAX\fR
(and their
\fBGID\fR
counterparts for the creation of groups)\&.
.sp
Note that
\fBuseradd\fR
will not create a home directory for such a user, regardless of the default setting in
/etc/login\&.defs
(\fBCREATE_HOME\fR)\&. You have to specify the
\fB\-m\fR
options if you want a home directory for a system account to be created\&.
.RE
.PP

.RS 4
Apply changes in the
\fIPREFIX_DIR\fR
directory and use the configuration files from the
\fIPREFIX_DIR\fR

.RE
.PP
\fB\-s\fR, \fB\-\-shell\fR\ \&\fISHELL\fR
.RS 4

.RE
.PP
\fB\-u\fR, \fB\-\-uid\fR\ \&\fIUID\fR
.RS 4
The numerical value of the user\*(Aqs ID\&. This value must be unique, unless the

.PP
Similarly, if the username already exists in an external user database such as NIS or LDAP,
\fBuseradd\fR
will deny the user account creation request\&.
.PP
It is usually recommended to only use usernames that begin with a lower case letter or an underscore, followed by lower case letters, digits, underscores, or dashes\&. They can end with a dollar sign\&. In regular expression terms: [a\-z_][a\-z0\-9_\-]*[$]?
.PP
On Debian, the only constraints are that usernames must neither start with a dash (\*(Aq\-\*(Aq) nor plus (\*(Aq+\*(Aq) nor tilde (\*(Aq~\*(Aq) nor contain a colon (\*(Aq:\*(Aq), a comma (\*(Aq,\*(Aq), or a whitespace (space: \*(Aq \*(Aq, end of line: \*(Aq\en\*(Aq, tabulation: \*(Aq\et\*(Aq, etc\&.)\&. Note that using a slash (\*(Aq/\*(Aq) may break the default algorithm for the definition of the user\*(Aqs home directory\&.
.PP
On Ubuntu, the same constraints as Debian are in place, with the additional constraint that the username cannot be fully numeric\&. This includes octal and hexadecimal syntax\&.
