NOME

       chfn - cambia il nome dell'utente e altre informazioni

SINOSSI

       chfn [options] [LOGIN]

DESCRIZIONE

       The chfn command changes user fullname, office room number, office phone number, and home
       phone number information for a user's account. This information is typically printed by
       finger(1) and similar programs. A normal user may only change the fields for her own
       account, subject to the restrictions in /etc/login.defs. (The default configuration is to
       prevent users from changing their fullname.) The superuser may change any field for any
       account. Additionally, only the superuser may use the -o option to change the undefined
       portions of the GECOS field.

       These fields must not contain any colons. Except for the other field, they should not
       contain any comma or equal sign. It is also recommended to avoid non-US-ASCII characters,
       but this is only enforced for the phone numbers. The other field is used to store
       accounting information used by other applications.

OPZIONI

       The options which apply to the chfn command are:

       -f, --full-name FULL_NAME
           Cambia il nome completo dell'utente.

       -h, --home-phone HOME_PHONE
           Cambia il numero di telefono di casa dell'utente.

       -o, --other OTHER
           Cambia il campo GECOS per le altre informazioni. Questo campo viene utilizzato per
           memorizzare informazioni di «accounting» usate da altre applicazioni, e può essere
           modificato solo dal super utente.

       -r, --room ROOM_NUMBER
           Cambia il numero della stanza dell'utente.

       -R, --root CHROOT_DIR
           Apply changes in the CHROOT_DIR directory and use the configuration files from the
           CHROOT_DIR directory. Only absolute paths are supported.

       -u, --help
           Mostra un messaggio di aiuto ed esce.

       -w, --work-phone WORK_PHONE
           Cambia il numero di telefono di lavoro dell'utente.

       If none of the options are selected, chfn operates in an interactive fashion, prompting
       the user with the current values for all of the fields. Enter the new value to change the
       field, or leave the line blank to use the current value. The current value is displayed
       between a pair of [ ] marks. Without options, chfn prompts for the current user account.
