Hello,
Try this for adding multiple users with default password,
i=1
while [ $i -le 5 ]
do
useradd u${i}
echo u${i} | passwd --stdin u${i}
echo "User u$i is created"
i=`expr $i + 1`
done

friends,
I want to create some around 500 - 1000 id's like u1,u2,u3..so on.. and
apply default password same as user name.
I tried to automate this using shell script by running adduser command in to
loop.
while [ $i -le 1000 ]
do
adduser u$i
passwd u$i
echo "User u$i is created"
i=`expr $i + 1`
done
The user gets created with this but for the setting password with passwd
command it asks for user input.
Is there any way to give password as command line argument to passwd
command, so I can automate the setting of passwords.
Thanks & Regards,
Milind Vyas
