adduser.local, deluser.local

hook for local actions in adduser and deluser

adduser.local [ username] [ uid] [ gid] [ home-directory]
deluser.local [ username] [ uid] [ gid] [ home-directory]

adduser.local and deluser.local can be placed by the local admin into /usr/local/sbin and will be called by adduser and deluser respectively in order to do locally relevant setup and cleanup actions.

The hooks are called while the adduser/deluser lock is active. They must therefore not call back to adduser/deluser themselves.

Return values from the hooks are ignored.
