You can get an example for your particular system by running this as
root:
ralsh user username
There's probably a way to generate the encrypted string without the
account actually existing first, but I don't know it.
A related question I have: How do you assign an initial password when
the account is created, but prevent Puppet from making that the
password every 30 minutes (should the user want to change it)?
