I am trying to create a script that will read a person's name from an ascii
file of names and then create a unique account to be used for internet mail.
It will also set the password for the account. This script would be used
via crontab to periodically check the file for new users.
The problem I have run into is that the passwd command won't accept input
from a script. That has been verified with Digital support. That means I
have to write my own program to set passwords using the script. That would
be difficult for me.
Does anyone know of a program that will do this and/or have a script that
does what I described above?
Thanks.
