chpasswd − update passwords in batch mode
|
chpasswd [options] |
chpasswd reads a list of user name and password pairs from standard input and uses this information to update a group of existing users. Each line is of the format:
user_name:password
By default the supplied password must be in clear−text. Default encryption algorithm is DES. Also the password age will be updated, if present.
This command is intended to be used in a large system environment where many accounts are created at a single time.
The options
which apply to the chpasswd command are:
−e, −−encrypted
Supplied passwords are in encrypted form.
−h, −−help
Display help message and exit.
−m, −−md5
Use MD5 encryption instead DES when the supplied passwords are not encrypted.
Remember to set permissions or umask to prevent readability of unencrypted files by other users.
