Hi,

LDAP could work well for this. You might check out Directory
Administrator:

http://diradmin.open-it.org/index.php

I've been experimenting a bit with using OpenLDAP for 
authentication/user info, and need to keep things GUI-ish so the Windoze 
admins can figure it out if they need to add or modify user info. It is 
certainly easier than creating the ldif files by hand.

It is included with SuSE 8.1, or you can get it from the above site.

HTH,

John V.
