Yes u can di all this with CGI.

the first thing is to choose the language for cratin your CGI, i think Shell (Bourn or Korn ) will run well.

for creatin for example user just save in text file
user.cgi :
mkuser (AIX), useradd or adduser syntax

eg. adduser -u login -......

Don't forget to change mode : chmod o+r user.cgi

and thant just save it under :

.../cgi-bin/

your link will be :
http://...../cgi-bin/user.cgi



good luck
