Hi everyone,

When using ALICE for the installation, it says as follows,

#
<username>[:<password>:<userid>:<groupid>:<comment>:<homedir>:<loginshell>]
# 

# That means only username is actually re-quired. For the other fields,
# defaults as config-ured above will be taken. You may leave fields off,
but 
# the colons are required. <password> MUST be EN-CRYPTED by YOU, the
script
# doesn´t do this for good reasons. Again: don´t put unen-crypted
passwords

As someone being never made a manual useradd action I have two questions
:

1) Can I define the homedir as main.server:/homedir
2) Regarding the password encryption how do I make it ? Is it some
gurbage that I type in or is there am utility to create it for me to use

Thanks in advance
