+ <para><command>systemd-sysusers</command> uses the
+ files from <filename>/usr/lib/sysusers.d/</filename>
+ to create system users and groups at package
+ installation or boot time. This tool may be used for
+ allocating system users and groups only, it is not
+ useful for creating non-system users and groups, as it
+ accessed <filename>/etc/passwd</filename> and
+ <filename>/etc/group</filename> directly, bypassing
+ any more complex user database, for example any
+ database involving NIS or LDAP.</para>
+
+ </refsect1>
+
+ <refsect1>
+ <title>File Format</title>
+
+ <para>Each file shall be named in the style of
+ <filename><replaceable>package</replaceable>.conf</filename>.</para>
+
+ <para>All files are sorted by their filename in
+ lexicographic order, regardless of which of the
+ directories they reside in. If multiple files specify
+ the same user or group, the entry in the file with the
+ lexicographically earliest name will be applied, all
+ all other conflicting entries will be logged as
+ errors. Users and groups are
+ processed in the order they are listed.</para>
+
+ <para>The file format is one line per user or group
+ containing name, ID and GECOS field description:</para>
+
+ <programlisting># Type Name ID GECOS
+u httpd 440 "HTTP User"
+u authd /usr/bin/authd "Authorization user"
+g input - -</programlisting>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>Type</title>
+
+ <para>The type consists of a single
+ letter. The following line types are
+ understood:</para>
+
+ <variablelist>
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term><varname>u</varname></term>
+ <listitem><para>Create a
+ system user and group of the
+ specified name should they not
+ exist yet. The user's primary
+ group will be set to the group
+ bearing the same name. The
+ user's shell will be set to
+ <filename>/sbin/login</filename>,
+ the home directory to
+ <filename>/</filename>. The
+ account will be created
+ disabled, so that logins are
+ not allowed.</para></listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term><varname>g</varname></term>
+ <listitem><para>Create a
+ system group of the specified
+ name should it not exist
+ yet. Note that
+ <varname>u</varname>
+ implicitly create a matching
+ group. The group will be
+ created with no password
+ set.</para></listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+ </variablelist>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>Name</title>
+
+ <para>The name field specifies the user or
+ group name. It should be be shorter than 256
+ characters and avoid any non-ASCII characters,
+ and not begin with a numeric character. It is
+ strongly recommended to pick user and group
+ names that are unlikely to clash with normal
+ users created by the administrator. A good
+ scheme to guarantee this is by prefixing all
+ system and group names with the underscore,
+ and avoiding too generic names.</para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>ID</title>
+
+ <para>The numeric 32bit UID or GID of the
+ user/group. Do not use IDs 65535 or
+ 4294967295, as they have special placeholder
+ meanings. Specify "-" for automatic UID/GID
+ allocation for the user or
+ group. Alternatively, specify an absolute path
+ in the file system. In this case the UID/GID
+ is read from the path's owner/group. This is
+ useful to create users whose UID/GID match the
+ owners of pre-existing files (such as SUID or
+ SGID binaries).</para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>GECOS</title>
+
+ <para>A short, descriptive string for users to
+ be created, enclosed in quotation marks. Note
+ that this field may not contain colons.</para>
