Isn&#039;t this just a matter of writing a tiny shell/awk/Perl script and/or perhaps setting up a little LDAP server and doing some /etc/nsswitch.conf configuration? Or maybe just good old NIS/YP? You could even distribute /etc/passwd (shadow, group) in a pinch?</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>I think the tool SL used in 6.5 might be &quot;system-config-users&quot;. It was <a href="https://access.redhat.com/solutions/2212981" rel="nofollow">removed</a> in RH 7.&#160; (SL uses the same version numbering as RH)</p><p>It looks like the application has been abandoned now, but Fedora still has it:<br />https://than.fedorapeople.org/system-config-users/</p><p>You can also get source here:<br />https://gitlab.com/tallero/system-config-users</p><p>You could always try compiling it yourself and see if it works for you. It requires libuser which <a href="https://pkginfo.devuan.org/cgi-bin/policy-query.html?c=package&amp;q=libuser&amp;x=submit" rel="nofollow">is available</a> in the Devuan repos.</p><p>Also... here you go: https://www.devuan.org/os/donate</p>]]></description>
