AIX - User Management - Change User

AIX - User Management - Change User

Using chuser command we can change user properties, i.e. user home directory, shell group, etc. except password

Whenever you create a user that user home directory by default created in /home file system, and default group is staff.

If we want to change the Test user group to system, then your command will be.

#lsuser Test (it will show Test user properties including group information)

#chuser pgrp=system Test (now Test user is assigned to primary group system and secondary group is assigned to staff)

#lsuser Test (It will list modified Test properties, group is system, staff)

Like this we can change all the user properties
