I haven't seen one, but I've written similar programs in the past (in perl,
but back before shadow passwords were common). If you can program in perl or
C, all you need to do is use crypt() to encode the password, then write it
to the passwd or shadow file. ("man 3 crypt" for the details of the C call;
the "Camel book" is one place to find the perl details.)
