Clunky AD integration - Anybody create a script to update local users on mulitple ESX boxes?

So we're at 48 ESX hosts and growing. One of the clunky aspects of ESX and AD integration is the requirement to have local user accounts in the Service Console with equivalent names within AD. Updating each host turns into a pain. Have any of you Perl or Bash guru's created any scripts to overcome this?

 

I'm thinking.. ssh > nonroot login > sudo > edit /etc/passwd based on a list of usernames. Take it another step by removing users that have left the company... all to a list of ESX host names.

 

I know this is probably childs play for a scripting guru.
