# This program, once installed as /usr/local/sbin/adduser.local, is auto-
# matically called by the adduser(8) system program on a Debian system.
# This script completes the creation of a user account in a system-
# dependent way.

# This script is automatically called by adduser with arguments "USERNAME
# UID GID HOMEDIR".  See adduser(8) for more details.  In addition, this
# script may be called manually; run "perldoc adduser.local" for more
# details.

=head1 NAME

adduser.local - adduser(8) local system additions

=head1 SYNOPSIS

/usr/local/sbin/adduser.local [B<--dry-run>] [B<--conf> FILE] [B<--quiet>]
[B<--verbose>] [B<--help>] [B<--version>] USERNAME [UID GID HOMEDIR]

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The B<adduser.local> script, once installed as
F</usr/local/sbin/adduser.local>, is automatically called by the
adduser(8) system program on a Debian system.  This script completes the
creation of a user account by parsing a system-dependent configuration
file, F</etc/adduser.local.conf>.  That configuration file lists a number
of "services" to be configured, where each service is simply a convenient
name for directories that must be created, Unix groups to which the user
must be added, files that need to be copied, symbolic links to be created
and so on.

This script is automatically called by adduser(8) with arguments
I<USERNAME UID GID HOMEDIR>.  In addition, this script may be called
manually.  In this case, only I<USERNAME> needs to be passed, along with
options as described later in B<OPTIONS>.

Note that adduser(8) can now perform I<some> of the tasks that
B<adduser.local> does, particularly by using the EXTRA_GROUPS and
ADD_EXTRA_GROUPS variables in F</etc/adduser.conf>.  However,
B<adduser.local> is far more flexible than doing just that...

=head1 OPTIONS

=over 4

=item B<-n>, B<--dry-run>

Pretend to fulfil everything required, without actually doing anything.

=item B<-c>, B<--conf> I<FILE>

Use configuration file I<FILE> instead of the default
F</etc/adduser.local.conf>.

=item B<-q>, B<--quiet>

Don't show extraneous output.

=item B<-v>, B<--verbose>

Show output about what was done (default).

=item B<-h>, B<--help>

Show a brief command-line summary.

=item B<-V>, B<--version>

Show the version of the B<adduser.local> script.

=back

=head1 RETURN VALUE

B<adduser.local> returns a successful (zero) exit status if no severe
errors were detected, otherwise a non-zero exit code is returned.

=head1 EXAMPLES

To add the user "john" to your system:

adduser john

This automatically calls B<adduser.local> with the appropriate arguments.

If you would like to rerun the B<adduser.local> script (such as after
modifying its configuration file) for the user "john":

adduser.local john

=head1 FILES

=over 4

=item F</etc/adduser.local.conf>

Configuration for B<adduser.local>.  The default configuration is
extensively documented.
