Joseph,
I don't think this is doing what you expect.
It looks like you are only using set_user_field. If you look at it in
the standard library it just sets a field on a matched user. If it does
not match a line I don't believe it will have anything to set. I suspect
you need an insert lines promise if the user isn't already in the shadow
file.
In my local user management bundle I use a replace_or_add edit_line
promise to initialize the shadow file. One the entry is their you could
use the set_user_field.
This may seem undesirable initially but consider the situation where you
only want to set a user field if the user exists, you don't wasn't to
add a line and set the field.
user existence means they are found in /etc/passwd, but that does not
necessarily correspond with an entry in /etc/shadow.
Take a look at this bundle for some ideas.
