Hi,

 To my surprise, useradd isn't shipped with 4.3-STABLE (at least, not that I can see.)
 Is there any way to use adduser in a non-interative state (run from scripts)?

 i.e. $ adduser -d /home2/testuser -u testuser -p password
 (pardon any syntax errors, that is for example only.)

 Failing that, where can I get adduser?

 Thanks
