Sorry for the confusion.
I did copy the wrong statement in my last answer.
Of course I had added the values shown below
DISABLE_TESTS=passwd_changes group_changes deleted_files suspscan
EXCLUDE_USER_FILEPROP_FILES_DIRS="etc/passwd"
But still after a change to /etc/passwd the command rkhunter --cronjob --rwo
reports the following warning on my ubuntu 16.04 LTS.
Warning: The file properties have changed:
File: /etc/passwd
Current hash:

Does it really work on your machine ?

Yes, you will. That option says to monitor the file for changes.
I said to use the 'EXCLUDE_USER_FILEPROP_FILES_DIRS' option.
