Recreate a known user

recreate_user.sh

#!/bin/bash
# Recreate a user that was created previously
# TODO: this onworking script has the side effect of setting the ownership badly on user with
# previous same userid. Must be fixed.


# create user
username=$1
adduser $username --home /data/users/$username

# add user to sudoers
usermod -aG sudo $username

# relink the user with his directory
chown -R $username:$username /data/users/$username
