-c, --gecos=gecos
              Set  user's GECOS field to gecos.  The GECOS field is traditionally used to store user's real name
              and other information.

              Set user's home directory to directory.

       -g, --gid=gid
              Change user's primary group ID to gid.  If group with ID gid does not exist, a warning is printed,
              but the operation is performed anyway.

       -i, --interactive
              Ask all questions when connecting to the user database, even if default  answers  are  set  up  in

              Set user's password to the password represented by the hash encrypted.  Note that the hash can  be
              viewed while running lusermod using tools such as ps(1).
