Add two new menu options to the previous script. The two new options will be:
CM ??" create a user with your own script
CS ??" create a user with useradd
## Deliverables
**Option CM:**valid for 45 days (hint : look at the /etc/[login to view URL] file)
Create a script that would automate adding users. The script SHOULD NOT use the functionality useradd that comes with the system, to create users. Each user should write their own script.
Creating the password should also be incorporated in the script. That means, when you call the script to create a user, you also give it the password value, and then, your script will create the user and also create the password without prompting you for anything. (hands-free)
This script will read all the information from a file similar to **studentInfo**. The script will prompt the user for the filename, and the information will be read from the file. Your will create the password by using a combination of the username and the uid.
Example:
Password for Joe Bennet would be joeb1001
Assume the name of your script is *create_users*. The command should take the arguments:
./create_users *username uid gid initial_password user_information home_directory default_shell*
Make sure that group names are assigned to any new group ids (gid) that you find in the information file. ( if you find a gid 601, which is not defined as a group, on your system, you would have to define that group first, before you create a user belonging to that group)
A .profile file and a .login file should automatically be copied into the home directory, every time a user is created.
The system will incorporate the shadow password file.
The password should automatically have the default values for the following:
passwd length should be at least 6 characters
The password should be valid for 45 days (hint : look at the /etc/[login to view URL] file)
**Option CS:**
This time, user the **useradd** script to create users. The script will prompt the user for the filename, and the information will be read from the file. Your will create the password by using a combination of the username and the uid, just like before.
Make sure that group names are assigned to any new group ids (gid) that you find in the information file.
A .profile file and a .login file should automatically be copied into the home directory, every time a user is created.
The system will incorporate the shadow password file.
The password should automatically have the default values for the following:
passwd length should be at least 6 characters
The password should be
