CHFN(1)                  Dienstprogramme für Benutzer                  CHFN(1)

NAME
       chfn - ändert den vollständigen Namen eines Benutzers und sonstige
       Informationen

ÜBERSICHT
       chfn [Optionen] [ANMELDENAME]

BESCHREIBUNG
       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.

OPTIONEN
       The options which apply to the chfn command are:

       -f, --full-name FULL_NAME
           verändert den vollständigen Namen des Benutzers

       -h, --home-phone HOME_PHONE
           ändert die private Telefonnummer des Benutzers

       -o, --other OTHER
           Verändert die sonstigen Informationen über den Benutzer in der
           GECOS-Zeile. In diesem Feld werden Kontoinformationen anderer
           Anwendungen gespeichert. Es kann nur vom Superuser verändert
           werden.

       -r, --room ROOM_NUMBER
           ändert die Zimmernummer des Benutzers

       -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
           zeigt die Hilfe an und beendet das Programm

       -w, --work-phone WORK_PHONE
           verändert die berufliche Telefonnummer des Benutzers

       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.
