I know this isn't what you're asking for, but you could have a look at webmin - it's not included in the repos, but webmin.com has a repo for Debian that you can use. It does this, and a lot of other stuff also. I find it useful for setting up packages and services that I'm not familiar with, since you can make the changes in the webmin UI and then see what has changed in the config files. They also have a package called usermin that is used for setting up per-user stuff, although I haven't used that much. Or, closer to what you actually wanted, you could take a look at the package "kuser". Obviously, it's intended for use with KDE, so it will drag in some KDE/Qt libraries if you do not already have them. I couldn't find any such tools for GTK with apt-cache right now. Ubuntu has/had GTK tools for this, I think, maybe it's possible to grab those and use them on Jessie? No idea what the package is called, though. Petter -- "I'm ionized" "Are you sure?"
