Hi Petter, the script fails at the very first Popen call. If I replace proc = subprocess.Popen(cmd, shell-True, stdout=subprocess.PIPE,) with proc = subprocess.Popen(cmd, shell-True, stdout=None,)
the call succeeds. If the user has a local account, login succeeds, too. I haven't tested any further combinations (e.g. home directory, primary group membership, etc.) so far. I wonder why the author have specified subprocess.PIPE, since the actual output is not captured anywhere in the script?
