  • Create users and groups from a specific configuration file:
    systemd-sysusers path/to/file
  • Process configuration files and print what would be done without actually doing anything:
    systemd-sysusers --dry-run path/to/file
  • Print the contents of all config files (before each file, its name is printed as a comment):
    systemd-sysusers --cat-config
