Description Bogdan Rădulescu 2014-05-07 13:10:07 UTC 
It is not possible to add a user when starting a unit file with
ExecStartPre=/usr/sbin/useradd testuser
even if PermissionsStartOnly=true is used because the unit doesn't seem to execute anything unless the User exists.

I think it would be more flexible if before checking for the user it executed ExecStartPre when PermissionsStartOnly=true is present.
