Hi,
I have a problem with Zim which I wrote to the author about he replied

Atheros b/g only is probably the best supported. Recent post:

Hello,
When adding a new user it is possible to assign a random generated
password. But is it possible to assign a random password for already
existing users?
Preferably in a non-interactive and scriptable way. Is it possible with
the base system tools?

0(ich10)# pw useradd testuser1 -w random
Password for 'testuser1' is: oFPw9BPe
0(ich10)#
Presumably you're doing this to prevent direct login?
chpass allows root to set the encrypted password directly
chpass -p '$1$123456789$your-random-chars-here'

That occurred to me, but it's a smaller alphabet. Probably doesn't
matter if the purpose is to make login unusable.

That message is reporting a problem in communication between the
