Yes, I don't want to store clear text passwords, I want to know to to
encrypt passwords so that I can put the encrypted hash into the pp files.
Someone on the irc puppet channel showed me this command, which I'm
currently using:
openssl passwd -1
this works for generating MD5 passwords, but not blowfish passwords.
If anyone knows how to generate blowfish passwords, I'd be keen to know how
they do it.
Kind regards, Sebastian.
