Can you not write this as a script and call it in as the machine starts? You haven't said what OS version you have, so the options a too varied to go through just yet. Do you have access as root / a super-user account or just to all the individual accounts?

If you don't have super-user access, maybe we could write something and ask someone who does to set it up, but we need more information first.


If you can run as the super-user (however we arrange it) then you can do things like su - USERA /path/to/script without it prompting for a password.


What more can you tell us? It's all a bit vague.

NAME
lppasswd - add, change, or delete digest passwords. SYNOPSIS
lppasswd [ username ] lppasswd -a [ -g groupname ] username lppasswd -x username DESCRIPTION
lppasswd adds, changes, or deletes passwords in the CUPS digest password file, passwd.md5. When run by a normal user, lppasswd will prompt for the old and new passwords. When run by the super-user, lppasswd can add new accounts (-a username), change existing accounts (user- name), or delete accounts (-x username) in the digest password file. Digest usernames do not have to match local UNIX usernames. OPTIONS
lppasswd supports the following options: -g groupname Specifies a group other than the default system group. SECURITY ISSUES
By default, the lppasswd program is not installed to allow ordinary users to change their passwords. To enable this, the lppasswd command must be made setuid to root with the command: chmod u+s lppasswd While every attempt has been made to make lppasswd secure against exploits that could grant super-user privileges to unprivileged users, paranoid system administrators may wish to use Basic authentication with accounts managed by PAM instead.
