<div>Have you used Webmin? I use Webmin and the bulk user add utility. You just import a CSV file into the script and it adds each user, creates home directory, etc.</div>

I ran the smbldap-installer<BR>script and have it set up as my pdc. I created over 800 users useing the<BR>bulk add scripts that came with the installer. I noticed however that it<BR>did not create any home directory for these users. If I manually create a<BR>single user everything is fine home directory is created. I need to have<BR>home directories for these users. I need this fixed fast as school starts<BR>next week. Everything worked fine last year when I had it all running on<BR>fedora. This summer I switched it all over to ubuntu and have had nothing<BR>but headaches. I need help fast. Thanks for any input.<BR><BR>Randy Swift<BR>Networ!
