SYNOPSIS
     /usr/sysadm/privbin/deleteUserAccount -l login-name [<-A | -D> | <<-H |

DESCRIPTION
     deleteUserAccount deletes a user account from the system and handles the
     deleted account's files.

     The deleteUserAccount command has the following required parameter:

     -l login-name
          The login name of the user account to delete

     The deleteUserAccount command has the following optional parameters:

     -A   Indicates that all of the user's files local to the system should be
          deleted. None of -D, -H, or -E may be specified with the -A option.

     -D   Indicates that the user's home directory should be deleted.  None of
          -A, -H, or -E may be specified with the -D option.

     -H -U new-user-ID -G new-group-ID
          Indicates that the user's home directory and its contents should be
          reassigned to the new-user-ID and new-group-ID specified.  Any file
          contained in the home directory tree which is owned by the user
          being deleted will be reassigned to the new-user-ID.  If the file is
          also owned by the user's primary group, its group ownership will be
          reassigned to new-group-ID.  Files not owned by the user being
          deleted will not be affected.  Files owned by root may not be
          reassigned to another user.

     -E -U new-user-ID -G new-group-ID
          Indicates that all of the user's files local to the system should be
          reassigned to the new-user-ID and new-group-ID specified.  Any file
          on the local filesystems which is owned by the user being deleted
          will be reassigned to the new-user-ID.  If the file is also owned by
          the user's primary group, its group ownership will be reassigned to
          new-group-ID.  Files not owned by the user being deleted will not be
          affected.  Files owned by root may not be reassigned to another
          user.
