For example this is in some loop, with different variables in it each time:
echo "$1 $2 $3 $4 $5"

saslpasswd2
SASLPASSWD2(8) System Manager's Manual SASLPASSWD2(8)
NAME
saslpasswd2 - set a user's sasl password
SYNOPSIS
saslpasswd2 [-p] [-d] [-c] [-n] [-f file] [-u domain] [-a appname] [-v] userid
DESCRIPTION
saslpasswd2 is used by a server administrator to set a user's sasl password for server programs and SASL mechanisms which use the standard
libsasl database of user secrets.
OPTIONS
-p Pipe mode - saslpasswd2 will neither prompt for the password nor verify that it was entered correctly. This is the default when
standard input is not a terminal.
-c Creates an entry for the user if the user doesn't already exist. This is mutually exclusive with the -d (delete user) flag.
-d Deletes the entry for the user. This is mutually exclusive with the -c (create user) flag.
-n Don't set the plaintext userPassword property for the user. Only mechanism-specific secrets will be set (e.g. OTP, SRP)
-u domain
use domain for user domain (realm).
-f file
use file for sasldb
-a appname
use appname as application name.
-v Print libsasl2 version number and exit.
