I'm looking for a (safe) way for the end user to do it directly from a browser form. 1. to make it easy and 2. so the account is setup right away. My perl script for the form is setup and verifies all information down to doing an nslookup on the email domain and emailing it to me along with all inputed info. I'm offering free accounts so its not so much of an issue that someone can setup an account I just don't want to leave a whole for users to add themselves to root. Does anyone know how I can do this if at all? To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
