This relies on useradd, usermod, and userdel utilities on the system. The argument name is required; if state is not provided, present is assumed. Other options supported for creating or modifying an existing account: uid, gid, comment, home, shell, and password. If managing the password, it must already be encrypted. When creating an account, you can also provide the argument createhome to control whether the home directory is created. Arguments supported for deleting an account are: force (remove account even if user is logged in) and remove (remove home directory).
