Todd is right. I used this syntax and I could get my account passwd entry quickly. 
However, when I tried to do the same thing for mkgroup -d -u <uname> <domain name>, I 
got error "Cannot get PDC, code = 2453" after it printed SYSTEM group entry.
 
And I am quite concern about why when I started inetd using local admin user, the 
inetd process running using UID 400 and I got connection refused error.
 
Any idea?

Acutally the command would be the following: 

mkpasswd -d -u <username> <DOMAINNAME> >> /etc/passwd 

This would not get everyone in your domain.

I tried that. But it still took long time and had a lot of other people's entries 
showing up. Thanks,

> 2)  I didn't run mkpasswd -d because the domain is too big that it is 
going to take forever. 

you could run: mkpasswd -d -u myusername >> /etc/passwd
