Rename of user on trusted system?

How do I rename a user on a trusted system? When you have 35 users to rename, i'd rather not delete and recreate them.

Any info is appriciated.

Usermod will do it. You probably also want to rename the user's home directory in your script and thus pass in the new directory as the -d arg.

Man usermod for details.

If it ain't broke, I can fix that.
