I chose to manage users with puppet. The only thing I did not like was password management. I did not want to put user's password in the manifest files. Instead I execute two commands when a user is created (only once): set an empty password (usermod -p '"" username) and set the password to expired (chage -d 0 username). This will force the user to set the password with the first login. I also place user's ssh key with ssh_authorized_key (I store the public keys in the manifests) and disable password logins on the box.
