I agree, with you. This isn't about functionality, it's about automating
functionality. Puppet needs to know if the stored password matches the
password it thinks is correct. Without this it would just try and run
"setpassword" each run.

I will test Martin's command shortly :)

Cheers!

Is there any other attribute to look at?
For example the timestamp when it was last set and base the update on that rather than on matching password values?
