deluser

The "deluser" command line tool is used to remove user accounts from a Linux system. It is typically used by system administrators to manage user accounts efficiently. The tool requires root privileges to execute. The basic syntax of the command is "deluser [options] username". It removes both the user and their home directory by default, but this behavior can be altered using command line options. The tool also enables the administrator to choose whether to remove or keep the user's mail spool. Various options can be used with the command to specify additional actions, such as removing the user from specific groups or deleting their personal files. Despite its power, it should be used with caution by authorized users to avoid unintended consequences.
