It appears the md5sum shell command doesn't generate the same output
as Python's md5. Django's md5s are generated like so:
>>> import md5
>>> md5.new('password').hexdigest()
Generate the md5 that way, and you should be good to go. Or spare
yourself the low-level trouble and use this:
>>> from django.models.auth import users
>>> u = users.create_user('username', '[EMAIL PROTECTED]', 'password')
>>> u.is_staff = True
>>> u.save()
