23 |
The __userdel__ command modifies the system account |
|
|
24 |
files, deleting all entries that refer to ''login''. If |
|
|
25 |
__USERGROUPS_ENAB__ is set to yes in |
|
|
26 |
__/etc/login.defs__, then __userdel__ will also remove |
|
|
27 |
entries in __/etc/group__ that refer to ''login'' if, |
|
|
28 |
and only if, there are no members of that group listed, or |
|
|
29 |
the only member is ''login''. The named user must |
|
|
30 |
exist. |

|
|
39 |
for and deleted manually. |

__userdel__ will not allow you to remove an account if |
|
|
61 |
the user is currently logged in. You must kill any running |
|
|
62 |
processes which belong to an account that you are deleting. |
|
|
63 |
You may not remove any NIS attributes on an NIS client. This |
|
|
64 |
must be performed on the NIS server. |
