Hi all,
I'm learning the python language and i'm trying to create a user if it is
not found in the system.
I figured it out by doing the following thing :
>>> def finduser(user):
... for line in open('/etc/passwd'):
... if line.startswith(user):
... print user, "user exists"
... return True
... return False
>>> if not finduser('myuser'):
... print "Creating user myuser"
... os.system('/usr/sbin/useradd myuser')
But i think it's a dirty way to do so. Is there another way to manage users
with python ?
Thank you :)
Sam
