    I need a method for automatically generating a crypt(3) password so I can
    input it into the
    usermod -p command to force a user to enter a new password when logging in.

    I saw a way to use python to generate the key, but its not automatated.

    Any help would be appreciated.
    I am running RHEL ES2.1
