Console GUI for User Account Management



Hello everybody,

I'm new to this list, so I'm hoping not to break with any rules.

I'm looking for a console tool for adding, deleting and disabling user accounts using the /etc/passwd- and group databases and smbpasswd-database. It should offer a curses like user interface, because I don't want to run X.

It would be nice, if such tool would support user-profiles, i.e. something like presets for new accounts, e.g. smb-user, console-user.

Further it should use useradd/adduser et al as backend.

In some linux-distributions such tools are intergrated within a global configuration enviroment, like YAST in Suse or linuxconf in RedHat. Commercial Unices have done this job in a similar manner.

I don't trust such conf-tools. I'm looking for something smaller for my task.

Does anyone have a hint?

Thanks in advance.

Greetings from Hamburg,
