Create users

[vishwajit]

Hi
Can anyone help on how to add passwords to already created users non-interactively in shell script.
Passwords will be stored in one text file. Script should automatically take passwords from file.

Thanks in Advance

Hey There,

You can do it if your implementation of passwd accepts input from STDIN. Just run through a while loop, like

while read input
do
    passwd code here
done <input

Hope that helps :)
