MySQL and/or PostgreSQL databases for new users?

[William O'Higgins]

I administer a RHES machine, and as such I have the responsibility for
adding new users and setting them up with the various things they'll
need, like ~/public_html folders with the right permissions and
databases to play with.  I figure there is a way to write a script so
that this basic stuff gets triggered when I adduser, but I don't know
what that would be.

There are two questions:

1. What do I have to do to get a script to automatically do basic
housekeeping when I add a user?

2. How do I create a database and a user for each new user on the
system, preferably in both MySQL and PostgreSQL?

Thanks.
