DESCRIPTION
The smbldap-usermod command modifies the system account files to
reflect the changes that are specified on the command line.
UNIX options
-c, --gecos gecos
The new value of the user’s comment field (gecos). (Don’t use this
to modify displayName or cn. Use -N and -S options combined instead).
-d, --homedir home_dir
The user’s new login directory.
-r, --rename new_user
Allow to rename a user. This option will update the dn attribute
for the user. You can also update others attributes using the
corresponding script options.
-u, --uid uid
The numerical value of the user’s ID. This value must be
unique, unless the -o option is used. The value must be non
negative. Any files which the user owns and which are located in
the directory tree rooted at the user’s home directory will have the
file user ID changed automatically. Files outside of the user’s
home directory must be altered manually.
-o, --canBeNotUnique
uidNumber can be non unique
-g, --gid initial_group
The group name or number of the user’s new initial login group.
The group name must exist. A group number must refer to an already
existing group. The default group number is 1.
-G, --group [+-]group,[...]
A list of supplementary groups which the user is also a member
of. Each group is separated from the next by a comma, with no
intervening whitespace. The groups are subject to the same
restrictions as the group given with the -g option. If the user is
currently a member of a group which is not listed, the user will be
removed from the group, unless the ’+’ or ’-’ caracter is used to add
or remove groups to inital ones.
-s, --shel shell
The name of the user’s new login shell. Setting this field to
blank causes the system to select the default
login shell.
-N, --givenName
set the user’s given name (attribute givenName). Additionally used
to set the first name in displayName and cn.
-S, --surname
Set the user’s surname (attribute sn). Additionally used to set the
last name in displayName and cn.
-P
End by invoking smbldap-passwd to change the user password (both
unix and samba passwords)
-M, --mailAddresses mail,[...]
mailAddresses (comma seperated)
-T, --mailToAddress mail,[...]
mailToAddress (forward address) (comma seperated)
--shadowExpire <YYYY-MM-DD/n>
Set the expiration date for the user password. This only affect
unix account. The date may be specified as either YYYY-MM-DD or ’n’
days from day. The ’n’ syntax also supports the extended format
(#y)(#m)(#d) for years, months, and days from today. One need not
specify all three, so all of the following are examples of valid input:
’5y4m2d’ (5 years, 4 months, and 2 days), ’5y’ (5 years), ’5y2d’ (5
years and 2 days), and ’3’ (3 days). This option calls the internal
’timelocal’ command to set calculate the number of seconds from Junary
1 1970 to the specified date.
--shadowMax <n>
User must change the password, at least, every ’n’ days
--shadowMin <n>
User must wait ’n’ days once the password has changed before
changing it again
--shadowInactive <n>
Number of days of inactivity allowed for the specified user
--shadowWarning <n>
User is warned that the password must be changed four days before
the password expires
-L, --shadowLock
Lock unix user’s password. This puts a ’!’ in front of the
encrypted password, effectively disabling the password.
-U, --shadowUnlock
Unlock unix user’s password. This removes the ’!’ in front of the
encrypted password.
SAMBA options
-a, --addsambaSAMAccount
Add the sambaSAMAccount objectclass to the specified user account.
This allow the user to become a samba user.
-e, --expire <YYYY-MM-DD(HH:MM:SS)/n>
Sets the expiration for both samba (--sambaExpire) and shadow
(--shadowExpire).
--sambaExpire <YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS/n>
Set the expiration date for the user account. This only affects the
samba account. The date must be in the following format: YYYY-MM-DD
HH:MM:SS. The n-days format of shadowExpire is also supported. This
option uses the internal ’timelocal’ command to set calculate the
number of seconds from Junary 1 1970 to the specified date.
-x
Creates rid and primaryGroupID in hex instead of decimal (for Samba
2.2.2 unpatched only - higher versions always use decimal)
-A, --sambaPwdCanChange
can change password ? 0 if no, 1 if yes
-B, --sambaPwdMustChange
must change password ? 0 if no, 1 if yes
-C, --sambaHomePath path
sambaHomePath (SMB home share, like ’\\\\PDC-SRV\\homes’)
-D, --sambaHomeDrive drive
sambaHomeDrive (letter associated with home share, like ’H:’)
-E, --sambaLogonScript script

execute on login, like ’foo.bat’)
-F, --sambaProfilePath path
sambaProfilePath (profile directory, like
