NAME
     adduser -- command for adding new users

SYNOPSIS
     adduser [-check_only] [-class login_class] [-config_create]
	     [-dotdir dotdir] [-group login_group] [-h | -help] [-home home]
	     [-message message_file] [-noconfig] [-shell shell]
	     [-s | -silent | -q | -quiet] [-uid uid_start] [-v | -verbose]

DESCRIPTION
     Adduser is a simple program for adding new users.	Adduser checks the
     passwd, group and shell databases.  It creates passwd/group entries, HOME
     directory, dotfiles and sends the new user a welcome message.

RESTRICTIONS
     username
	     Login name.  May contain only lowercase characters or digits.
	     Maximum length is 16 characters (see setlogin(2) BUGS section).
	     The reasons for this limit are "Historical".  Given that people
	     have traditionally wanted to break this limit for aesthetic rea-
	     sons, it's never been of great importance to break such a basic
	     fundamental parameter in UNIX.  You can change UT_NAMESIZE in
	     /usr/include/utmp.h and recompile the world; people have done
	     this and it works, but you will have problems with any precom-
	     piled programs, or source that assumes the 8-character name limit
	     and NIS.  The NIS protocol mandates an 8-character username.  If
	     you need a longer login name for e-mail addresses, you can define
	     an alias in /etc/mail/aliases.
     fullname
	     Firstname and surname.  The `:' character is not allowed.
     shell   Only valid shells from the shell database or sliplogin and pppd
     uid     Automatically generated or your choice, must be less than 32000.
     gid/login group
	     Your choice or automatically generated.
     password
	     If not empty, password is encoded with crypt(3).

UNIQUE GROUPS
     Perhaps you're missing what can be done with this scheme that falls apart
     with most other schemes.  With each user in his/her own group the user
     can safely run with a umask of 002 instead of the usual 022 and create
     files in their home directory without worrying about others being able to
     change them.

     For a shared area you create a separate uid/gid (like cvs or ncvs on
     freefall), you place each person that should be able to access this area
     into that new group.

     This model of uid/gid administration allows far greater flexibility than
     lumping users into groups and having to muck with the umask when working
     in a shared area.

     I have been using this model for almost 10 years and found that it works
     for most situations, and has never gotten in the way.  (Rod Grimes)

CONFIGURATION
     1.   Read internal variables.

     2.   Read configuration file (/etc/adduser.conf).

     3.   Parse command line options.

OPTIONS
     -check_only
	     Check /etc/passwd, /etc/group, /etc/shells and exit.

     -class login_class
	     Set default login class.

     -config_create
	     Create new configuration and message file and exit.

     -dotdir directory
	     Copy files from directory into the HOME directory of new users,
	     `dot.foo' will be renamed to `.foo'.  Don't copy files if
	     directory specified is equal to no.  For security make all files
	     writable and readable for owner, don't allow group or world to
	     write files and allow only owner to read/execute/write .rhost,
	     .Xauthority, .kermrc, .netrc, Mail, prv, iscreen, term.

     -group login_group
	     Login group.  USER means that the username is to be used as login
	     group.

     -help, -h, -?
	     Print a summary of options and exit.

     -home partition
	     Default home partition where all users located.

     -message file
	     Send new users a welcome message from file.  Specifying a value
	     of no for file causes no message to be sent to new users.

     -noconfig
	     Do not read the default configuration file.

     -shell shell
	     Default shell for new users.

     -silent, -s, -quiet, -q
	     Few warnings, questions, bug reports.

     -uid uid
	     Use uid's from uid on up.

     -verbose, -v
	     Many warnings, questions.	Recommended for novice users.
