I have already created a script that will create a new user on our HP and SCO boxes. If the user needs to be on every box we have, which is approx. 20 different ones, I have to log into each one and run my script. To make things easier and more efficient, I would like to add something to the script that would create this same user on any other Unix box that I choose. I.E. Test01 has been created on this box. Are there any other boxes you would like to add this user? (y or n): y Enter name: HPPROD01 Test01 added to HPPROD01 Continue? (y or n): n End script. I know how to script the above, but what I don't know is how to to send the user information to other boxes in order to create the user. What do I need to make this work or is it even possible? Thanks in advance, Ph03n1x

Consider a consilidate user auth system like NIS. A central authentication system will scale.
