I am happy to announce, the world of managing POSIX users/groups stored in LDAP has gotten even easier.

Plugtools supports adding, modifying, and removing both POSIX users and groups. Best of all, it also supports a plugin system.

The most useful plugin I've written for it so far is Plugtools::Plugins::Samba, which allows Samba users to be created in LDAP as well as turning existing users in LDAP into Samba accounts as well.
