Depending on how you set the users, you could, for example, simply create "scripts/DEFAULT/10_create_users.sh" script which does the following case "$HOSTNAME" in name1) USERNAME=user1;; name2) USERNAME=user2;; *) USERNAME='' esac if [[ -z "$USERNAME" ]] then adduser "$USERNAME" ..... fi (Obviously probably too short script, but I hope that will help getting started - does it?)
