Just thought that I would add a couple of extras to Kwan's script..
But I am not sure if the password thingy works correctly yet maybe
someone will have something better.. anyway
here it is..
#!/bin/bash
IFS=$'\n'
for item in `cat /etc/passwd`; do
USERNAME=`echo $item | cut -d: -f1`
USERID=`echo $item | cut -d: -f3`
GROUPID=`echo $item | cut -d: -f4`
COMMENT=`echo $item | cut -d: -f5`
USERDIR=`echo $item | cut -d: -f6`
USERSHL=`echo $item | cut -d: -f7`
if [ "$USERID" -gt "499" ] && [ "$USERNAME" != "nobody" ] ; then
echo groupadd -g ${GROUPID} ${USERNAME}
echo useradd -u ${USERID} -g ${GROUPID} -c \"${COMMENT}\" \
-d ${USERDIR} -s ${USERSHL} ${USERNAME}
PASSWD=`grep ${USERNAME}: /etc/shadow | cut -d: -f2`
echo usermod -p \"$PASSWD\" ${USERNAME}
fi
done
