Hi

I'm running 2.2.5-STABLE and 3.0-CURRENT.

I'm trying to add users using the pw command. Everything works except I can't
add the passwd. 

I've tried:
echo "passwd" | pw useradd -n test ...... -h 0 
but it fails. I've edited  a /etc/pw.conf file and set default passwd to 
random but then it used this setting rather than the passwd I'm trying to 
feed it. 

Any help would be appeciated.

Cheers

Shaun
