Remove Linux user accounts

I killed the processes and backed-up old accounts on the Peregrine UAT server 10.3.28.44. You can find tarballs for the home folders of all removed accounts on Peregrine UAT at:

10.3.28.44:/root/bak/deleted/users

To remove accounts safely I did the following:

Lock the account.

Persist Filesystem Permissions

The writable files and folders for web applications often require specific user, group and permission masks to persist, even when new files and sub-folders are added by users or the application itself.

For example, permissions might need to be:

File mode

u:rw,g:rw

Disable macOS Zscaler

The following script can be used to disable Zscaler on macOS. Zscaler is corporate spyware and security software that controls access to Internet resources and spoofs TLS certificates to allow inspection of encrypted communications on centrally managed corporate computers.

This script will not uninstall the Zscaler software.

Fastfetch is pretty cool, but it only shows the total ammount of packages for "system" package managers...

So I decided to write this nushell script. Never done much with nushell before. It's... interesting, and fast, but there are plenty of "wtfs" I guess I was not expecting. I'm happy with the result though.

Anyway, this script provides counters for other package/version managers I'm currently using.

So far it only supports

	set -o errtrace
