Currently, I'm adding local users through a hacked up adduser script that my staff can run via sudo. It works quite well. So far, I've found that ypchpass works to add new users painlessly, but it's a bit much for my non-unix co-workers to deal with. Does anyone have any adduser hacks for doing this? Would you care to share?
