18           chosen automatically.

24       -h,--home HOME_DIR
25           The home directory of the user account. The default is to append
26           the LOGIN name to /home and use that as the home directory. The
27           base that is prepended before LOGIN is tunable with
28           “user_defaults/baseDirectory” setting in sssd.conf.
29
30       -s,--shell SHELL
31           The user's login shell. The default is currently /bin/bash. The
32           default can be changed with “user_defaults/defaultShell” setting in
33           sssd.conf.

37
38       -m,--create-home
39           Create the user's home directory if it does not exist. The files
40           and directories contained in the skeleton directory (which can be
41           defined with the -k option or in the config file) will be copied to
42           the home directory.
43
44       -M,--no-create-home
45           Do not create the user's home directory. Overrides configuration
46           settings.
47
48       -k,--skel SKELDIR
49           The skeleton directory, which contains files and directories to be
50           copied in the user's home directory, when the home directory is
51           created by sss_useradd.
52
53           This option is only valid if the -m (or --create-home) option is
54           specified, or creation of home directories is set to TRUE in the
55           configuration.
56
57       -Z,--selinux-user SELINUX_USER
58           The SELinux user for the user's login. If not specified, the system
59           default will be used.
