I am trying to write a Perl script that I can use to feed the appropriate
answers to the questions asked by "/usr/sbin/adduser". I have tried
putting the responses in a file and then redirecting the file to the
adduser process using system(). This works fine until the password
prompt. The adduser process will not read this line out of the file.
My second attempt is to use pipe() and fork(), however I am not
getting too far with this as well.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Neil :-)
