hello
I use about a hundred fedora19 stations in computer labs at our school
users accounts comes from an ldap directory and the homedir is automounted via NFS. However, recently I noticed that on some stations, local user account had been created ! looking at the log file, I discovered in /var/log/secure something like this:

/accounts-daemon: request by system-bus-name ::1.733 [/usr/libexec/gnome-initial-setup pid:15259 uid:991]: create user 'foobar'//
//useradd[29724]: new group: name=foobar, GID=1001//
//secure-20131117:Nov 15 17:16:43 b3-4 useradd[29724]: new user: name=susana, UID=1001, GID=1001, home=/home/susana, shell=/bin/bash// //secure-20131117:Nov 15 17:16:43 b3-4 useradd[29724]: add 'susana' to group 'wheel'// //secure-20131117:Nov 15 17:16:43 b3-4 useradd[29724]: add 'susana' to shadow group 'wheel'/

Scary ! how comes gnome-initial-setup could create users, and morever add them to the wheel group ! could it be a bug in /gnome-initial-setup , /a feature side effect ? or our students found a "back door" ?
any suggestion greatly appreciated .

Thanks .
