How To Add New Username Using Default Password with OpenSSL in SuSE Linux Enterprise Server
Creating a single or two username in SLES is simple job but creating 100 or 1000 new usernames in Linux using manual command line would be pain.
I would like to share about using OpenSSL for creating new username in SLES and probably work for other Linux distro as well.
#Create a default password using OpenSSL
openssl passwd -crypt mysecretpassword
#Example of password output
D4KtJYzzCtz3x
#Create a new username(e.g. myusername1, 2 & 3using default password)
useradd -m myusername1 -d /home/myusername1 -p D4KtJYzzCtz3x
useradd -m myusername2 -d /home/myusername2 -p D4KtJYzzCtz3x
useradd -m myusername3 -d /home/myusername3 -p D4KtJYzzCtz3x
Create add user script and add the example as above. Work Smart!
