hi,

no. sudo or granting permission to user with "sam -r" are the only ways.

You could create a root equivalent user by giving them a uid of 0 - NOT recommended!

You could also make /etc/passwd writable by a particular group or even world-writable, but I certainly wouldn't recommend that either.

Why do you need to have someone other than root create users?
