Hi,

I've a member at a production site that wants to assign user accounts for different groups. He's a novice at most computer uses and I'd like to strictly limit his administrative access so that he can only add new accounts one by one. I'm thinking he'd need to add name, username, passwords and email would be all the information he'd need to type in. Cam anyone suggest an avenue of attack to limit his admin access to only adding new users?

Thanks, anemic

I resolved this by creating a version of the admin interface that only allows someone to register a new user or logout...I removed all the other admin links (access to modules,etc). I then created a webmaster account and modified the user menu so that when the special admin user logs in the account will see 'Sign up new member' and not the admininistrative menu option. So he cannot really get where he can do harm but he can sign up new members like he wanted to.
