Next question.  I want to automate user administration.  The whole ‘useradmin useradd’ thing with its interactive interface and live password addition (who the heck only lets root set a user’s pasword?) is probably not going to work with our 500+ filers.  500xNumberOfAdmins.  Yeah, right.

 

The docs point to fairly standard /etc/[passwd,shadow,group] files, but having added a user, I still don’t see them on my box.  Has anyone automated user management?

Nice, that did it.  Thanks.  User-level auditing will be a godsend.

On a similar note, I've been trying to get user-level auditing working
using ssh.  When you telnet in, it logs actions under your userid, but
when you ssh in, it logs everything as root.  (Presumably because sshd
is running as root?)

Has anyone else had this problem, or know of a workaround?

This is 6.5X18
