Subject: passwd files
I have tried this but it doesnt seem to work. I can't
really even find any good docs on this I have skimmed through
several howtos that I thought might give a clue. I am still
doing some testing and rtfming I just really dont want to have
to change passwords for over 300 users by hand.
