Useradd

The useradd command is part of the pwdutils package utility suite, a product of the Free Software Foundation. The source code file is useradd.c. This suite also includes commands to manage the shadow and password files. Referenced sometimes as shadow-utils in the Fedora project.

A model user directory is usually copied from /etc/skel
