Hello,
I have uploaded to Sunsite xusermgr (a Motif user manager for Linux)
xusermgr allows you to maintain a large number of account very easily.
xusermgr requires root privileges to run and utilizes the getpwent()
and putpwent() system calls instead of directly accessing the passwd file.
Unfortunately xusermgr currently does not support shadowed passwords.
Shadow password support will be included in the next version.
Includes source code and a statically linked binary.
Released under the GNU Public License.

So nobody is perfect....
