Script to add passwords

[Jeff Bauer]

Bruno,

You may consider using Paul Sheer's python Expect 
module to perform this kind of task.  His example
even includes a script demonstrating how to set
a Unix password.

ftp.obsidian.co.za/pub/expect

It does use interactive mode, but from your message
I'm inferring your main concern is how to accomplish
Unix password assignment via a cgi script.
