you can use the cut and get just all the users and put it in a file.
remove root,nobody,etc... and just leave all the users you want to add
cut -d ":" /etc/passwd > /path/to/myusers.file
then do a for loop something like:
for i in `/bin/cat /path/to/myusers.file`
do pw useradd $i
done
hope this helps!
