						You have 2 options:
1) Set up restricted sam (do 'sam -r' as root for setup) for these users and just give them access to the functionality you want.
2) Download and install sudo:
http://www.sudo.ws/sudo/
or
http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/hpux/Sysadmin/sudo-1.6.8p12/
And set up permissions in sudo for the users to use useradd, etc.

						You may consider doing this by using Restricted SAM:
sam -r, this will allow you to provide limited non-superuser access to SAM functionality, such as adding users to your server.
