Creating Local Accounts with MDT and Config Mgr OSD: How to?

We are using an MDT 2012 UDI deployment Task Sequence in Config Mgr 2012. I have attempted to create and add a local account to the administrators group during deployment using both the default unattend.xml and a custom answer file. In both cases this setting is ignored. I am a little confused because other settings I specify in the answer file such as IE home page are preserved after deployment, but the local account is never created.
Is this possible to do via the method I am describing or is there another method I must use?

Hi,
You can create a mdt vbscript / batch to create and add the user to a group. Either you use the script in the TS with a command line action or simply add an application step (if you create an app for this task)
example addusers.cmd :
net user /add useraccountname mypassword
net localgroup administrators useraccountname /addregards,

I could be wrong but I was looking through my unattend.xml via the system image manager and I think that when I set the admin password, the account becomes active. I did that here:
7. oobe\ms-windows-shell-setup_neutral \UserAccounts\LocalAccount\AdministratorPassword
The fact that the admin account is active on the machine supports the theory because I'm not adding the account in any other way. -It is possible that I activated it long ago when I first build the WIM though.
