Of course, we understand, that it must create a system users. But, we hope do it via just systemd.
We think use adduser/addgroup and deluser/delgroup is "ugly"

1) Is there any possibility to implement to add and remove users/groups via systemd-sysusers ?Addition is already implemented (I mean, that's the whole point)... removal *probably* won't be, as it could very easily lead to UID collisions (e.g. you remove an account which had UID 994, and then a week later you add a different account with UID 994).Note that sysusers is meant for *system* accounts (daemons, services, etc.) – not for human accounts.2) And where is systemd-sysusers.service? (Or why it is in man)It's in the same place as other default services. Try `systemctl cat` or `systemctl status` and it'll show the path. (Assuming your distro hasn't removed the service entirely, that is...)3) Can I sync uid:gid on different machinesFor human accounts? In general, the service isn't meant for that. Deploying a sysusers config with static UIDs to all your machines would work, but I'd say it's overkill – after all, you could just use the same configuration deploy mechanism to add accounts directly. Most sites use LDAP or NIS for that purpose.--Mantas Mikulėnas
