I have a computer with a local user X that shadows an LDAP user of the

I know I can use:
userdel X
groupdel X
check luserdel and lgroupdel . The prefix l is for local. :-)
Oh, except... it's not. The l is for "libuser" — those tools are samples for
the libuser package, https://pagure.io/libuser. And libuser absolutely can
affect LDAP, depending on the system configuration.


at least it seems that save, that ansible

* https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/devel/lib/ansible/modules/user.py#L625

* https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/devel/lib/ansible/modules/user.py#L640-L643

and puppet

* https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/blob/main/lib/puppet/provider/user/useradd.rb#L12

are using it, when you specify "local=yes" or "forcelocal=true".
