Users on Lhotse ​

For the other variant, see Users on Makalu.

You are able to manage users in more traditional ways through the shadow-utils provided tooling (useradd, passwd, etc) but TeamSBC intends for you to manage users through systemd-homed.

The preferred way in TeamSBC to manage local users is by using systemd-homed. This allows for portable, encrypted home directories for each user which get unlocked on user login. TeamSBC is configured to allow local and remote logins to systemd-homed managed users by default.

Managing Users ​

Adding a user ​

console
$ run0 homectl create $username

Removing a user ​

Removing users is a destructive action. Their home area will be destroyed and thus all data in there will be gone forever. Think twice if this is what you want and consider making a backup of the relevant home area.

If you are certain you want to remove the user you can use the following command. There is no confirmation prompt, the user will be gone immediately.

console
$ run0 homectl remove $username

Inspecting a user ​

console
$ run0 homectl inspect $username
