Thank you very much to the two who posted methods of automatically creating user accounts!

Gnarlodious <email@hidden>

"John C. Welch" <email@hidden>

"Gnarlie" posted an AppleScript that accomplishes the job if the encrypted form of the password is known.  I guess there must be a command line utility to encrypt the password?  I did search for it on my own, unsuccessfully.  Or is the algorithm documented?  I could code it if I knew the algorithm.

John C. Welch posted a description of how to use a command line utility called serversetup.  Apparently serversetup is part of OS X Server?  Is Server Admin Tools something that I can download independently of buying OS X Server?  I guess I don't know my way around the Apple site as well as I should.  Could anyone point me to its location?  I have not yet invested in OS X Server, and serversetup is definitely not present on my 10.4.6 machine.

Thanks again for your help!

Paul Humphrey
