cfperl will run 'groupadd' as appropriate to add the 'cftest' group. 'groupmod' will be used to modify existing groups when needed, e.g. the gid changes. Only the gid is changeable for groups. 'groupdel' will be used to delete users. 'useradd/mod/del' are used for user management in the same ways. For users, the following properties are controllable: uid gid secondary_gid homedir shell gecos Which are basically what the useradd/usermod utilities support, and cfperl delegates to them. These utilities are in an OS matrix that can be extended to any number of OSs and programs to get tasks done; right now Solaris and Linux are trivially supported but there's no reason why any other OS can't be included.
