site deluser

Description

Sets a user account as deleted. Note that the account is not removed from the user database. Instead, a DELETED flag is set on the account which prevents the user from being able to access the server. You need to use the site purge command to permanently purge a deleted user from the database. Alternatively, you can restore a deleted user with the site readd command. If applicable, the group administrator who originally created the account being deleted will have their user_slots count incremented.

Syntax

site deluser <user>

Detailed information on the options/arguments: <user>

Limitations

  • Group administrators can only remove users from within their own primary group.
  • Use of this command only marks an account as deleted (effectively, it is disabled) and will not permanently erase the account from the user database.

Examples

site deluser toto

Mark the user account toto as deleted. If the toto user account was originally created by a group administrator, this group administrator will have their user_slots count incremented. The user toto will be unable to login after their account has been marked as DELETED.
