Code:
mkdir -p /home/admin/useraccounts
for (( i=0; i<=500; i++ )) 
do
        #Create users whose name starts with baci, 
        #so this script will create baci1, baci2, baci3 etc depending on i value.   
   useradd baci$i
   < /dev/urandom tr -dc A-Na-n1-9_ |\
   head -c8 > /tmp/passwd.txt
        #this command is bit tricky, < /dev/urandom  
        #will generate all the random characters which are not even present
        #on keyboard.. and tr -dc A-Na-n1-9, will display only characters
        #which are from A to N, a to n and 1 to 9. This is to avoide o(small o),  
        #O(capital o), 0(numerical zero) characters in order to remove 
        #confusion in the password.  #And there is no character limit.   so head -c8
        #will limit the random characters to just 8
 
done   # was missing!!!  (VBE)

lr_environment

LR_ENVIRONMENT.IN(1)					  LogReport's Lire Documentation				      LR_ENVIRONMENT.IN(1)

NAME

       lr_environment - Export Lire configuration in shell script form

SYNOPSIS

       eval `lr_environment`

DESCRIPTION

       The lr_environment command is used to import the Lire configuration in Lire shell scripts.

       All of Lire configuration variables will be written in a format that can be evaled by the shell.

       Shell scripts don't usually have to use that command, since it is done by the defaults file sourced by each command.

       The old names used by when the configuration was done in shell script are also exported by this script for backward compatibility.
