I received 4 answer with 2 add_user scripts. They work fine.
Thanks a lot to:

The add-user script is below this line:

My original Posting
Hi sun-managers
On a Sun workstation, called P, (SunOs 4.0.3c) The adduser program
disappeared. We haven't the original SunOs media for that station because
the station comes from another department. We have a SunOS 4.1.3 CD and CD
drive attached to another SUn station, called R. How can I restore or get
the add_user utility?
Is it possible to upgrade the station P from the CD on the station R?
Thanks
