Where can I find documentation on this command? There is no "man dovecotpw" installed, and searching for "dovecotpw" on the wiki gives 4 pages that mention its existance.
Just executing the command with no options gives a password prompt that cannot be broken out of (had to kill from another terminal). The -h and -l options give some info, but not enough to plan how to integrate this into building the passdb/userdb. For example how to reference the appropriate file. marconi/root/x0 /root 72# /usr/sbin/dovecotpw -h > /usr/sbin/dovecotpw: invalid option -- 'h' > usage: dovecotpw [-l] [-p plaintext] [-s scheme] [-u user] [-V] > -l List known password schemes > -p plaintext New password > -s scheme Password scheme > -u user Username (if scheme uses it) > -V Internally verify the hash > marconi/root/x0 /root 73# /usr/sbin/dovecotpw -l > CRYPT MD5 MD5-CRYPT SHA SHA1 SHA256 SMD5 SSHA PLAIN CLEARTEXT CRAM-MD5 > HMAC-MD5 DIGEST-MD5 PLAIN-MD4 PLAIN-MD5 LDAP-MD5 LANMAN NTLM OTP SKEY RPA > marconi/root/x0 /root 74# > On Mon, Apr 26, 2010 at 5:16 PM, Mike Abbott <michael.abb...@apple.com>wrote: > > Is there a tool equivalent to the system "passwd" command > > The dovecotpw command may be a good place to start. > >
