I'll we happy to help, I can setup test servers, and probably help out with some perl coding. One thing that I'll like to see is a some way to have centralize accounts, probably using LDAP (I don't know anything about LDAP, but can help test something if anyone comes up with something), I know there's an NIS howto for e-smith, but I'll prefer something else. Another thing would be an easy way to add many users at once, I've saw Darrell's howto http://myezserver.com/docs/mitel/addusers-howto.html and wrote my first e-smith cgi script(this was my first script for e-smith, the perl code it's kind of ugly) http://www.geocities.com/lapsch/rpms/multiuseraccounts-11062001-1.noarch.rpm This would be bery usefull, specially for sites that need to add many users quickly and easy from data in other programs. I wrote this program for the High School I work for, all student information is downloaded from the attendance computers, a perl script splits it into a new file wich can be use with my cgi script and create users from it. Some one was helping me out testing it out in Europe (sorry I can't remember his name), I have only test it on esmith 4.1.2 and work with no problems. It added about 500 students in about 2 hours(much faster then sitting down and adding users by hand). If anyone comes out with a solution/idea for centralize accounts and adding/deleting/disabling... many users at once. I can help test it out, It really will be helpfull.
