.Dt RMUSER 8
|
|
.Os
|
|
.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm rmuser
|
|
.Nd remove users from the system
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Nm rmuser
|
|
.Op Ar username
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm rmuser
|
|
utility removes a user's
|
|
.Xr crontab 1
|
|
entry (if any) and any
|
|
.Xr at 1
|
|
jobs belonging to the user,
|
|
then removes a user from the system's local password file, removes
|
|
the user's home directory if it is owned by the user, and removes
|
|
the user's incoming mail file if it exists. The username is removed
|
|
from any groups to which it belongs in the file
|
|
.Pa /etc/group .
|
|
If a group becomes empty and the group name is the same as the username,
|
|
the group is removed (this complements
|
|
.Xr adduser 8 's
|
|
per-user unique groups).
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Nm rmuser
|
|
politely refuses to remove users whose uid is 0 (typically root), since
|
|
it seemed like a good idea at the time
|
|
.Nm rmuser
|
|
was written.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Nm rmuser
|
|
shows the selected user's password file entry and asks for confirmation
|
|
that you wish to remove the user. If the user's home directory is owned
|
|
by the user (and not by any other user),
|
|
.Nm rmuser
|
|
asks whether you wish to remove the user's home directory and everything
|
|
below.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Available options:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width username
|
|
.It Ar \&username
|
|
Identifies the user to be removed; if not present,
|
|
.Nm rmuser
|
|
interactively asks for the user to be removed.
|
|
