Hi,

Is there a method to add a list of users to a domain. I have a billion :) users to add to the new system and am trying to find a way to stream line the addition process.

way way to many to add one at a time.

ideas?

Hello,

If you have root access, you could make a script to add them manually to:

/etc/virtual/domain.com/passwd

in the format:

bob:asdf123
fred:hjklasd

where the 2nd parameter is the crypted password.

If you don't have root, then you can make a test user backup with "POP Accounts for all domains". Download the file, figure out the format, insert your own emails into the file and restore the backup.
