I was messing around with “passwd” command and created a few user accounts.
Now I need to delete them! I tried deleting the user folder in home
directory, but password still works… Is there a command to delete users?
If not, what folders/files do I need to trash?
Sorry about this…new to multi-user os…

remove the lines with the unwanted users from
/etc/passwd
/etc/shadow

Why port it?
Just make adduser an alias to passwd (with appropriate parameters)

Well yes. But there are folks which know syntax from BSD systems:
adduser [-check_only]
[-class login_class]
[-config_create]
[-dotdir dotdir]
[-group login_group]
[-h | -help]
[-home home]
[-message message_file]
[-noconfig]
[-shell shell]
[-s | -silent | -q | -quiet]
[-uid uid_start]
[-v | -verbose]

I am trying to do my best as long as I have free time. Now in Finland is
7:45pm Thu and it is time to go at home after almost 11h in front of
computer. But look at home I have to open my RTP 
at least 2 hours …
