You're welcome. It's often annoying how hard it is to do certain administrative tasks on OS X from the command line. Even for just creating an account, it's no harder to do a full screenshare via ssh and VNC and then just use System Preferences to add the account as always. Indeed, here's how to do anything you want on the server remotely from another OS X machine (though the local machine isn't really important here). On the server, download "VineServer3.0.dmg" from http://sourceforge.net/projects/osxvnc/files/ Then do remote% sudo open VineServer3.0.dmg remote% cp -R /Volumes/Vine\ Server/Vine\ Server.app /Applications On the local machine, install a VNC client (I used Chicken of the VNC from http://sourceforge.net/projects/cotvnc/ ) and then start an ssh tunnel local% ssh -L 5900:localhost:5900 u...@remote.domain.com remote% sudo /Applications/Vine\ Server.app/Contents/Resources/OSXvnc- server -localhost -rfbnoauth and now just start the VNC client and point it at localhost:5900 (For COVNC this is the default connection it offers). Now the remote screen appears on your local one and you can do whatever you need to do.
