Where can I find that script?

I think we're going to go with ldap, so I'm going to have to figure
out how we want to handle adding/deleting users, etc.  I suppose I'll
just whip up some scripts, but I wouldn't mind having a good one as a
reference.  First I need to look in to ldap and see what the tools are
for editing the database from the command line (if that's possible).

Thanks
