 NAME
       adduser - adds a user on a RaQ without using the UI

 

SYNOPSIS

       adduser [ options... ]

 

DESCRIPTION

       adduser, adds a user to a virtual site.  The script checks

       user defaults for missing information, these defaults  are

       configured  in  the  Cobalt  user  interface on site admin

       page, under the "Set User Defaults" button.   For  example

       if  you  configure  Telnet/Shell access under this screen,

       you can skip the -t option and all users created will have

       shell access enabled.

 

OPTIONS

       -d  [text] The fully quilified domain name of the site the

       user will be added to.

 

       -g [text] The group name of the site user  will  be  added

       to.

 

       -u  [text]  This  is the name used by the Cobalt server to

       identify the user. It also appears in the URL of  the  web

       site  and  the  email  address of the user. Only lowercase

       alphanumeric characters,  periods  (.),  hyphens  (-)  and

       underscores (_) are allowed.

 

       -f [text] This is the full name of the user separated by a

       space ie. Doug West. If this option is not  provided,  the

       -u text is used.

 

       -p  [text]  Enter  a password containing 3 or more charac-

       ters.   A strong password is  one  that  is  difficult  to

       guess, not found in any dictionary, and is 8 or more char-

       acters with at least one non-alphabetical character. Pass-

       words are case sensitive.

 

       -q  [number] This is the disk quota of the user. It is the

       total disk space allowed for  web  pages,  email  and  all

       other files.

 

       -a Enables the user to be a site administrator.

 

       -x  Enable  FrontPage  Server Extensions for the user web.

       FrontPage Server Extensions must be enabled for  the  site

       to enable any user web.

 

       -o  Enable APOP for this user.  APOP is a secure method of

       authentication to a POP3  server.   This  option  is  only

       available  to  certain  mail  readers  like  Fetchmail  or

       Eudora.

 

       -e [list]  Enter  additional  names  that  the  user  will 

       receive email as.  For example, enter laurie.price for the

       address  -  laurie.price@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx  Only  lowercase

       alphanumeric  characters,  periods  (.),  hyphens  (-) and

       underscores (_) are  allowed.  Separate  multiple  entries

       with a comma.

 

       -w  [text]  the  Email  address  where you would like your

       email automatically forwarded.

 

       -h Brief help text.
