[Emerald] Add a Linux User from Emerald?

We have Emerald set up primarily for dialup and primary mail service
(MailSite). Any number of people in the office can administer those
services. And, we also have a little Linux box acting as FTP and Web
server.

Making sure that people remember to add/modify/delete an account on
this Linux box every time they add/modify/delete an account through
Emerald is getting is little time consuming and error prone. (Maybe,
for the sake of argument, the box could be any other non-Windows
machine, BSD, Solaris, FreeBSD, whatever...)

Can Emerald get around this scenario? In other words, is there software
out there that will "accept add/modify/delete requests" from Emerald?
Or, can Emerald be configured to send an E-mail to a particular
administrator each time a user has been added/modified/deleted using
Emerald? Are there other ways to make this task more convenient?

Any help is much appreciated!

Thanks,

-C.
