os.system("adduser ... ") ?

The way that users are added on "UNIX platforms" varies. Most
(Linux, BSD, Solaris) seem to have an "adduser" command. I
don't know how consistent the format of the adduser arguements
are.

Hi

On redhat you can use a libuser module that provides some highlevel
system tasks.
redhat-tools use this module all the time.. look at some sources
