User account management is one of my immediate responsibilities. I
help manage a heterogeneous network of UNIX (BSD and SYSV), Domain/OS,
and VMS systems.
I think we could all benefit by exchanging our approaches to concerns
such as:
o Automation of account management
o Consistent login names in all password files
o Unique uid and gid assignment
o Resource accounting on a per user or per group basis
o Removal of obsolete login names
o Enforcing password security
o Consistent user environment
o Electronic mail routing
Send me mail (even a short note) explaining your methods, and I'll
collate, edit and post what I get. The more responses I receive, the
better informed we all will be about effective account management.
