: Study the Fabric API run(), sudo(), local(), and put() and utilize them to create a new Fabric task called makeUser()
: The makeUser() task should perform the following on a remote machine to:
:* create a new user called "ops435p" with home directory "/home/ops435p".
:* add the new user to the sudo group called "wheel".
:* from your instructor, get the ssh public key which is posted on the internet to your controller workstation.:* add the ssh public key obtained from your instructor to the file named "authorized_keys" in the ~ops435p/.ssh directoryon the remote machine. (Note: Make sure that you set the proper ownership and permissions on both the directory ~ops435p/.ssh and the file "~ops435p/.ssh/authorized_keys.)
:Add the makeUser() to your final version of fabfile.py.
