The application... adding/removing users mainly using a web interface on
a
remote machine that creates a file containing the required commands to add and remove as necessary..
What's wrong with the traditional remote access tools for doing this type of work, e.g. ssh, telnet, etc?
Also, I second Andrew's note of caution about doing this. What steps are you taking to ensure that the incoming file is from an authorative source and not from someone trying to fsck with your box?
