Issue #1511 has been updated by ianburrell.

I found the problem.  I needed to restart the puppetd.  I installed ruby-shadow 
correctly but the libshadow feature is cached on startup.

Bug #1511: useradd provider for user type does not seem to set passwords

The useradd provider for user type does not change the password.  This is on 
Centos 4 with Puppet 0.24.4.  I think I have the ruby-shadow library installed 
correctly.  My impression is that it is an error if password parameter is set 
but manages_passwords feature is not available.

In lib/puppet/provider/user/useradd.pp, I don't see code to change the 
password.  It would need a way to pass the encrypt password as the "-p" option 
to usermod or useradd.
