In the very near future, my dept will be deploying several dozen Sun
Rays as Windows desktop replacements (uttsc CAM scripts that point to
various RDP sessions depending on card id). To ease the workload of
adding new users, our helpdesk staff has offered to assist in the
deployment and management of new user sessions. This is easy with the
admin gui web page, but does give the helpdesk the capacity to do cold
restarts to the service and mess with the security settings, something
that doesn't make this sysadmin very happy. At the same time, I would
also not be happy if I was on vacation (I'm the sole Unix admin) and I
had to remote in to add new sunray users.

So, is there a way to add another user to the admin gui with restricted
privileges? If not, is there another way to go about this (i.e.
server-side script or something else)?

FYI, I'm using a modified CAM script from Brad Lackey (btw, thanks! It
works great!) that reads the 'Other Info' field on the user's smart card
to populate the RDP session info. If no smart card is detected, the
script launches Firefox in an extremely restricted kiosk mode (I'm using
the r-kiosk extension).
