Scripting solution to create new accounts?

With the "net user" command I can create user accounts with passwords and
login scripts just fine. But there are 3 things this command doesn't seem to
be able to do:

1. Specify a network home directory (it only seems to support local paths)
2. Put the user in a specific OU (it just dumps the user into the built-in
Users OU)
3. Add the user to a specific security group (it only adds the user to the
Domain Users group)

Does anyone know of a solution that will allow me to create accounts while
specifying all of the above?

Thanks...
