consider:
bash-2.05b$ uname -r; grep mkpasswd /bin/ssh-host-config
1.5.5(0.94/3/2)
mkpasswd -l -u sshd | sed -e 's/bash$/false/' >> ${SYSCONFDIR}/passwd
Does "mkpasswd -l" make any sense on a domain controller?
On an NT domain controller I tested
mkpasswd -d -u sshd | sed -e 's/bash$/false/' >> /etc/passwd
and "ssh localhost" worked fine after stopping and starting sshd. The '-d"
option creates a user entry that apparently has the same SID, but
different uid offset.
Using only the "-d" switch on a domain controller would simplify
the cron script I use to automatically rebuild /etc/passwd.

perl -e 'print unpack("u", "1\:6UP\,\$\!T\<F\]D\;6\%N\+F\-O\;0H\`");'
