Does anyone know which package contain the source code for the command 'passwd'? I needed a batch version of passwd that would take all the required input from the arguments instead asking interactive questions. I browsed through the source package list but have no luck.
`newusers' is for creating users or updating user information in batch mode. You just have to create a file that has /etc/passwd's format and run `newusers <file>': [root]/home/sttr# cat newpasswds sttr:secret::::: [root]/home/sttr# newusers newpasswds Now user sttr has the password `secret'. The empty fields like name, home directory and login shell are preserved.
