linux useradd command

within the linux operating system there are commands that may be invoked using the shell. one such command is the useradd command. the useradd command can do the following:
  • provide a description of the new user account
  • assign expiration date for the account
  • set the deletion date of an account based on expiration date of the account
this is a short list of the things that useradd can do. i am currently using ubuntu release 10 on a dell laptop.

have a good week.
