set your encrypted password, and use sed to replace it
sed -s '/oldpass/newpass' /etc/shadow > /etc/shadow.new cp -p /etc/shadow /etc/shadow.Orig cp -p /etc/shadow.new /etc/shadow this assumes that you set the password on a local box, and you can get the encrypted passwd from the local /etc/shadow... Also assumes that no two users have the same password...
