| You can save the following to a file and add a user like this, ./filename.sh domain.com or whatever
#!/bin/bash
echo "Add New User to Backup System";
useradd -g backup -d /home/$1/ -c "`echo $1 | sed 's/\./\-/g'`" `echo $1 | sed 's/\./\-/g'`;
mkdir /home/$1/
chown -R `echo $1 | sed 's/\./\-/g'`:504 /home/$1/
echo `echo $1 | sed 's/\./\-/g'` >> /etc/vsftpd/chroot_list
sed -i "s/:\/home\/$1\/:\/bin\/bash/:\/home\/$1\/:\/bin\/ftp/g" /etc/passwd

# Sets the maximum size of the password the script will generate
MAXSIZE=32
# Holds valid password characters. I choose alpha-numeric + the shift-number key board keys
# I put escape chars on all the non alpha-numeric characters just for precaution
array1=(

)
# Used in conjunction with modulus to keep random numbers in range of the array size
MODNUM=${#array1[*]}
# Keeps track of the number characters in the password we have generated
pwd_len=0
while [ $pwd_len -lt $MAXSIZE ]
do
index=$(($RANDOM%$MODNUM))
password="${password}${array1[$index]}"
((pwd_len++))
done
#Set New Root Password
echo -e "$password\n$password" | (passwd --stdin `echo $1 | sed 's/\./\-/g'`)
echo "FTP Host: "`ifconfig | grep 'inet addr' | sed -n '1p' | awk -F ":" {'print $2}' | awk -F " " '{print $1}'`;
echo "FTP Port: 21";
echo "FTP Path: /home/"$1"/";
echo "Username: "`echo $1 | sed 's/\./\-/g'`;
