Script to change username

Hi All,
I have a crazy question, is there any way to write a script to change the username (shortname) of the original user after logging in to another user?


ex)

Paul logs into the machine with his credentials, as a login in script, a script fires changing his credentials to Alex.


The reason behind this is we have a lab with 10.5 and ldap is not being very cooperative with our printers.



please help -David
