Actually sudo really is the tool you want. With it you can specify what a specific user can run that requires additional priviledges. I've had it setup on several linux servers and was able to give specific users the ability to (for example) mount foreign file systems to the server AND change passwords for co-workers. Only what you state in the sudousers config file will be allowed. Read through their docs. It's pretty simple to setup.
If you are looking for a web based tool (like webmin) then you can setup a specific user to create/modify/delete other accounts. I've setup webmin on several servers and it works great.
