100% agreed.  Besides everything already suggested, the best solution 
for this IMVHO is still to use LDAP (lightweight directory access protocol).

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenLDAPServer

PHP already has a very nice interface with LDAP, which can do everything 
you want.

http://www.php.net/ldap

Right now you're basically recreating the LDAP interface PHP has already 
so it'll work with /etc/passwd.  This is very counter-productive.  LDAP 
might seem more complicated than creating something yourself, but in the 
long run it will make your system much more robust, portable and it will 
give you lots of extra features that might be useful in the future (such 
as replication to multiple servers).
