[Tutor] Unix User Adminstration Scripts

[Andrew D. Fant]

I'm in the planning stages of writing a program to manage user accounts
on some unix boxes that cannot be directly hooked into our central
account management system at work.  Obviously, the heavy lifting can be
done with shell calls to the underlying commands or via direct edits of
the relevant files.  Is there a more pythonic interface for this, and/or
does anyone have any pointers to sample code that demonstrates such an
interface?

Thanks,
	Andy
