Should be relatively easy with a for/do loop in a little script or something. Say you have a file called $HOME/users.txt with just names in, in the format: groucho harpo chico Doing something like: # for NAME in `cat $HOME/users.txt` > do > useradd $NAME > done ... would add groucho, harpo and chico with the default useradd options, man useradd or run it with no parameters to see what options you have available. Expect comes with a handy script called autopasswd which would allow you to add passwords for these users too (plain old passwd is interactive, making it tricky to automate).
