This morning I’ve been installing a new Sun Fire V240, and like always, I couldn’t remember the syntax to add a user to the system. Unlike other flavors of UNIX, Solaris does not have a command like adduser which walks you through the process step-by-step, so you have to remember the four flags useradd requires, and in what order it expects to receive them. Since I don’t manually add users unless I’m installing a new server, I don’t run the command enough to remember the syntax.
Anyhow, so I always know where to find the syntax, and in the hopes of helping others who might find themselves forgetting it, here it is:
useradd -g group -c ‘User Name’ -d /path/to/home/directory -s /path/to/shell username
Should you need to create a new group, it’s easy:
groupadd groupname

useradd
Very good! how do I enter a expiry date for useradd.

Good example.
Very helpful.
Thank you, i was searching the AddUser command
1. How to identify the existing groups and users?
2. How to identify the particular user is available in which group?

Why useradd takes so much of time on high end machines ??
# ptime useradd -g other -d /tmp/testuser -s /bin/csh testuser
real 55.317
user 0.806
sys 1.088
is ther any way to make it faster ?
