DESCRIPTION

17       Creating New Users The smbldap-useradd command creates a new user
18       account using the values specified on the command line and the default
19       values from the system and from the configuration files (in the
20       /etc/smbldap-tools directory).
21
22       Without any option, the account created will be a Unix (Posix) account.
23       The following options may be used to add information:
24
25       -a
26          The user will have a Samba account (and Unix).
27
28       -A
29          Can change password? 0 if no, 1 if yes.
30
31       -b
32          The user is an AIX account.
33
34       -B
35          Must change password? 0 if no, 1 if yes.
36
37       -c "comment"
38          The new user's comment field (gecos). This option is for gecos only!
39       To set as user's full name use the -N and -S options.
40
41       -C sambaHomePath
42          SMB home share, like '\\\\PDC-SRV\\homes'.
43
44       -d home_dir
45          The new user will be created using home_dir for the user's login
46       directory. The default is to append the login name to userHomePrefix
47       (defined in the configuration file) and use that as the login directory
48       name.
49
50       -D sambaHomeDrive
51          Letter associated with home share, like 'H:'.
52
53       -E sambaLogonScript
54          Relative to the [netlogon] share (DOS script to execute on login,
55       like 'foo.bat'.
56
57       -F sambaProfilePath
58          Profile directory, like '\\\\PDC-SRV\\profiles\\foo'.
59
60       -g initial_group
61          The group name or number of the user's initial login group. The
62       group name must exist. A group number must refer to an already existing
63       group. The default group number is defined in the configuration file
64       (defaultUserGid="513").
65
66       -G group,[...]
67          A list of supplementary groups that the user is also a member of.
68       Each group is separated from the next by a comma, with no intervening
69       whitespace. The groups are subject to the same restrictions as the
70       group given with the -g option. The default is for the user to belong
71       only to the initial group.
72
73       -H sambaAcctFlags
74          Spaces and trailing bracket are ignored (samba account control bits
75       like '[NDHTUMWSLKI]').
76
77       -i
78          Creates an interdomain trust account (machine Workstation). A
79       password will be asked for the trust account.
80
81       -k skeletonDir
82          When creating the user's home directory, copy files and directories
83       from skeletonDir rather than /etc/skel. The -k option is only valid in
84       conjunction with the -m option. The default is not to create the
85       directory and not to copy any files.
86
87       -m
88          The user's home directory will be created if it does not exist. The
89       files contained in skeletonDir will be copied to the home directory if
90       the -k option is used, otherwise the files contained in /etc/skel will
91       be used instead.  Any directories contained in skeletonDir or /etc/skel
92       will be created in the user's home directory as well.
93
94       -M mail
95          E-mail addresses (multiple addresses are separated by commas).
96
97       --non-unique
98          Allow the creation of a user account with a duplicate (non-unique)
99       UID.
100
101       -n
102          Do not print banner message.
103
104       -N givenname
105          Family name. Defaults to username.
106
107       -o node
108          The user's account will be created in the specified organizational
109       unit. It is relative to the user suffix dn ($usersdn) defined in the
110       configuration file.  Ex: 'ou=admin,ou=all'
111
112       -O localMailAddress
113          localMailAddresses (multiple addresses are separated by commas).
114
115       -P
116          Ends by invoking smbldap-passwd.
117
118       -p
119          Read password from STDIN without verification.
120
121       -s shell
122          The name of the user's login shell. The default is to leave this
123       field blank, which causes the system to select the default login shell.
124
125       -S surname
126          Defaults to username.
127
128       -t time
129          Wait <time> seconds before exiting script when adding computer's
130       account. This is useful when Master/PDC and Slaves/BDCs are connected
131       through the Internet (replication is not real time).
132
133       -T mailToAddress
134          Forward address (multiple addresses are separated by commas).
135
136       -u uid
137          The numerical value of the user's ID. This value must be unique,
138       unless the --non-unique option is used. The value must be non-negative.
139       The default is to use the smallest ID value greater than 1000 and
140       greater than every other user.
141
142       -w/-W
143          Creates an account for a Samba machine (Workstation), so that it can
144       join a sambaDomainName. Normally -w is used for adding machines through
145       Samba but -W can be used for manual addition of samba attributes.
146
147       -X encoding
148          Specify input encoding for givenname and surname (default UTF-8).
149
150       -Z name=value

152       pairs.
