Introduction
In this lab, we will learn how to use the userdel
command in Linux to delete user accounts, including removing their home directory and mail spool. We will cover the basic usage of the userdel
command, how to delete a user account, and how to remove the user's home directory and mail spool. This lab focuses on user and permission management, a crucial aspect of Linux system administration.
The userdel
command is used to remove user accounts from the system. By default, it does not remove the user's home directory and mail spool, but you can use the -r
option to do so. We will demonstrate the usage of the userdel
command with practical examples.
