You don't sound like one. An administrator reads the documentation first.
usermod(8) has:
-L Lock a user's password. This puts a '!' in front of the
encrypted password, effectively disabling the password. You
can't use this option with -p or -U.
Figuring out what -p and -U do left as assignment 1 for Admin 101.
