useradd <username> -p <password>
adds the user <username> to the system but does NOT set the password via
-p <password> as it says it should in the 'man useradd' page..
alternately...
useradd <username>
followed by ...
passwd <username>
does in fact work fine...in settings the password after creating a user...
Any idea why the first option does not function as the man page says it
should?
