groups, based on the file format and location specified in
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sysusers.d</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
</para>

all files found. If one or more filenames are passed on the

are searched for a matching file. If the string
<filename>-</filename> is specified as filename, entries from the
standard input of the process are read.</para>
