print $CLEAR;

#Set LDAPDomain
$DOMAIN="ou=people,o=xxxxxx,c=us";

print "Please enter user file >>";
$FILE=<STDIN>;
chomp($FILE);

#print "Please enter the user's First Name>>";
#$FNAME=<STDIN>;
#chomp($FNAME);
#print "Please enter the user's Last Name>>";
#$LNAME=<STDIN>;
#chomp($LNAME);


# Collect Groups
print "Please enter groups to add user too, Seperated by a comma(,)>>";
#$GROUPS=<STDIN>;
#chomp($GROUPS);
#@GROUPLIST=split(/,/,$GROUPS);
#$USERNAME=~s/\n//;
#$GROUPLISTCOUNT=scalar(@GROUPLIST);
#print $GROUPLISTCOUNT;

#Collect Admin Username
$SEC_USER=<STDIN>;
chomp($SEC_USER);
#$SEC_USER=~s/\n//;
$COMMAND4=`pdadmin -a $SEC_USER -p $SEC_PASS user create $USERNAME cn=$USERNAME,
