Title: adding multiple users..gone??
Post by: sam on May 04, 2003, 12:49:18 PM

Adding/Deleting lots of users on a SME box
I have raised this issue before but recently I have come across 2 new issues.
1. The http://myezserver.com/downloads/mitel/howto/addusers-howto.html doesn't seem to exist anymore. Could this mean that the script won't work for the latest SME boxes?
2. I reckon that someone should make a web panel plugin for creating lots of users.It should be simple for the experts out there (obviously not me).
* upload text file... format: username:firstname:secondname:password
* Checks format
* Create users
----------------
Deleting multiple users:
have them in a checkbox and simply have a select all (like webmail) to allow the deleting of lots of users.

all done from the web admin.

Note that with this facility places like schools, universities etc will be more attracted to SME.

>* upload text file... format: username:firstname:secondname:password

The complement function would be good too :-
ie. Export groups, pseudonyms, usernames and passwords (in encrypted form) to text file and allow for it to be reimported as well

This ties in with my wish list item to only backup and restore accounts and nothing else.
