I am trying to set a password for users in a non-interactive script. The only
way the users will be able to access my system is to use their private keys. I
create the user in the script like this:
sudo ${USERADD} -d /export/home/${USER_ID} -s /usr/bin/bash -c "${FIRST_NAME}
${LAST_NAME}" -m ${USER_ID}
what I would like to do is this:
sudo ${USERADD} -p ${PASSWORD} -d /export/home/${USER_ID} -g ${OTHER_ID} -s
/bin/bash -c "${FIRST_NAME} ${LAST_NAME}" -m ${USER_ID}
where PASSWORD is some encrypted password needed just to activate the home
directory so I can put the user's public key in .ssh. This obviously fails
because the -p option is not available in opensolaris.
Is there a way to do this without having to separately (interactively) run the
passwd command?
