This Bash script facilitates user management on a Linux system. It provides options to create users, delete users, and modify their permissions within specific user groups.
- Create Users: Easily create new user accounts with default read-only permissions.
- Modify Permissions: Option to change user permissions to either read/write/execute or read/write.
- Delete Users: Remove existing user accounts from the system.
- Run the script in a terminal:
./user_management.sh - Choose an option from the menu:
- 1: Create Users
- 2: Delete Users
- 3: Exit
- Enter the desired username.
- By default, the user is added to the 'Visiter' group with read-only permissions.
- Choose to modify permissions or proceed with the default.
- Choose 'Yes' when prompted to change permissions.
- Select the desired permission level:
- 1: Read/Write/Execute
- 2: Read/Write
- Enter the username to delete.
- The script checks if the user exists and deletes it if found.
- Ensure the script is executed with appropriate permissions (e.g., using
sudo). - Use caution when deleting users to avoid unintended data loss.
