Syntax:
# useradd -d /export/home/chr1x2 -m -s /bin/bash -c "Christian Foronda" chr1x2
Options:
-d home-directory-path
This is the new user’s home directory, typically /export/home/username
-m make home directory and copy the default skeleton files (these files are located in /etc/skel directory).
-u uid The uid (userid) is a number from 0 to 65535 which identifies the user on the system. uid 0 is reserved for root. If you don’t specify one, the next available uid will be used automatically.
-c “User Name” Comment field which usually contains the name of the user. Make sure you enclose the name in quotes if it contains a space.
-s /path/to/shell The shell to use. If you don’t specify this, it will default to /bin/sh. Make sure you specify the fully qualified path.
