After being frustrated with the current method of adding bulk users, using this method:
http://trac.ebox-platform.com/wiki/Document/HowTo/ImportUsersInBulk

I found the following url to work to add one new user:

https://192.168.1.x/ebox/UsersAndGroups/AddUser?username=userName&name=firstName&surname=lastName&comment=someComments&password=somePassword&repassword=somePassword&group=someGroup&add=Add

I made an excel sheet to concatenate all the user info to this url and manually pasted the url for each user. If anyone really needs to make bulk users they can create a loop to open the url in firefox/chrome/etc.

Thanks,

i used this script with php for create users with your idea
-------------------------
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0//EN">
<html>
<head>
  <title>Crear usuarios en Ebox</title>
  <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
  <meta name="GENERATOR" content="Quanta Plus KDE">
</head>
<body bgcolor="#ffffff" text="#000000">
<table style="border: 2px dotted gray;margin-right:auto;margin-left:auto;">
<?

$lines = file('alumnos');

?>

<tr style="text-align:center;background-color:#4a6890;color:#fff;">
<td>Usuario</td><td>Contrasenia</td><td>Nombre1</td><td>Nombre2</td><td>Apellido1</td><td>Apellido2</td></tr>
<?
foreach ($lines as $line_num => $line) {


$datos = explode(",", $line);
?>
   <tr>
   <td> <?= $datos[0] ?></td>
   <td style="background-color:#cccccc;"> <?= $datos[1] ?></td>
   <td> <?= $datos[2] ?></td>
   <td style="background-color:#cccccc;"> <?= $datos[3] ?></td>
   <td> <?= $datos[4] ?></td>
   <td style="background-color:#cccccc;"> <?= $datos[5] ?></td>
   <IFRAME src="https://ip_ebox/ebox/UsersAndGroups/AddUser?username=<?= $datos[0] ?>&name=<?= $datos[2]." ".$datos[3] ?>&surname=<?= $datos[4]." ".$datos[5] ?>&comment=Alumnos&password=<?= $datos[1] ?>&repassword=<?= $datos[1] ?>&group=alumnos&add=Add
   " width="1" height="1"
  scrolling="auto" frameborder="1">
</IFRAME>
   </tr>
<?
   } //fin foreach
?>
</table>

</body>
------------------------
