Set password in bash script without manual entry-Solaris 10

Hi

I have a root script which is setting up user and his dirs and so on. After I create user and set up all the necessary I have to manually set user password. I try all possible ways what google find me and nothing works for me. If maybe one of you have a solution for my problem it will be great.

--stdin, echo -e, expect is not installed and we cannot use it.... nothing works
so if anyone have any idea please let me know...

We are using Solaris 10,

NS-NEWPWPOLICY.PL(8)					      System Manager's Manual					      NS-NEWPWPOLICY.PL(8)

NAME
ns-newpwpolicy.pl - Directory Server perl script for preparing new password policies. SYNOPSIS
ns-newpwpolicy.pl [-Z serverID] [-v] [-D rootdn] { -w password | -j filename } [-P protocol] [-p port] [-h host] -U UserDN -S SuffixDN DESCRIPTION
Adds entries required for implementing the user- and subtree-level password policy. OPTIONS
A summary of options is included below: -Z Server Identifier The server ID of the Directory Server instance. If there is only one instance on the system, this option can be skipped. -D Root DN The Directory Manager DN, or root DN. If not specified, the script will search the server instance configuration for the value. -w password The rootdn password. -w - Prompt for the rootdn password. -j password filename The name of the file that contains the root DN password. -P Protocol The connection protocol to connect to the Directory Server. Protocols are STARTTLS, LDAPS, LDAPI, and LDAP. If this option is skipped, the most secure protocol that is available is used. For LDAPI, AUTOBIND is also available for the root user. -h host Host name of the Directory Server. -p port Port number of the Directory Server. -U userDN Specifies the DN of the user entry that needs to be updated with user-level password policy attributes. -S suffixDN Specifies the DN of the suffix entry that needs to be updated with subtree-level password policy attributes. -v Display verbose ouput EXAMPLE
ns-newpwpolicy.pl -Z instance3 -D 'cn=directory manager' -w password -P STARTTLS -U 'uid=user,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com' Note: security must be enabled to use protocol STARTTLS. If STARTTLS is not available it will default to next strongest/available protocol automatically. DIAGNOSTICS
Exit status is zero if no errors occur. Errors result in a non-zero exit status and a diagnostic message being written to standard error. AUTHOR
