	We have an SCO-UNIX based system (an Altos 5000) that
	does not include the "addx" tool.  We had to "invent" a
	series of shell scripts that both add and delete masses of
	users from our system.  We were able to do so, with some
	very helpful advice from SCO.

	I will be glad to shar them up and mail them if anyone wants
	them.  They seem to solve the problem of periodically adding
	and deleting masses of users for our university environment.
