I dont have any examples as I am not a windows net admin, but there are modules galore bundled with the libwin32 API library. Get it via CPAN or ppm if you use activestate. You wont even need to use the adduser program (I would guess). The module you are looking for is called Win32::NetAdmin (I would guess). http://search.cpan.org/search?mode=module&query=Win32%3A%3ANetAdmin Todd W. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
