DESCRIPTION
afppasswd allows the maintenance of afppasswd files created by netatalk for use by some User Authentication Modules (UAMs)
afppasswd can either be called by root with parameters, or can be called by local system users with no parameters to change their pass-
words.
EXAMPLE
Local user changing their own password:
example% afppasswd
Enter NEW AFP password: (hidden)
Enter NEW AFP password again: (hidden)
afppasswd: updated password.

-c Create and/or initialize afppasswd file or specific user.
-f Force the current action.
-p path
Path to afppasswd file.
-n If cracklib support is built into netatalk this option will cause cracklib checking to be disabled, if the superuser does not want
to have the password run against the cracklib dictionary.
-u minimum uid
This is the minimum user id (uid) that afppasswd will use when creating users.
