I install Webmin on all of my servers and use the Webmin User and Group
management.
Webmin gives you the ability to do batch uploads, modifications, or deletions
from a
text file. This should do everything you need with many users.

Check into Sabayon. I have not had as much time as I would like to play with
this but I
believe it will handle everything you need.

I am not sure how to do this and need a solution to this as well. I would like
to see
the printer list generated by Mac Address of the client. Then I can create
groups of
mac addresses assigned to each lab and show only printers available in the same
lab as
the respective clients.
