vadduser has always allowed the plaintext password to be specified on the command line as: vadduser email_address password Newer versions can generate a random password with: vadduser -r email_address Both forms can be run from perl using backticks. The random password from the second form can be collected from the backticks in perl. -- Paul Allen Softflare Support
