Is there an equivalent of a useradd for systems that are using LDAP user management? I know I can build an LDIF file and import it, but it is a bit of a pain to do it manually all the time.
Is there not an easier / faster way

I forgot the web interfaces to LDAP. You can use a web browser to administer your LDAP database:
LDAP Account Manager http://www.ldap-account-manager.org/lamcms/
PHPldapadmin http://phpldapadmin.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Main_Page
I use both, depending on the particular need I have at the moment.
