Assign, change, or delete a password from all system accounts.

From the original Amiga UNIX 2.1 manual. Some things it mentions may not be in this release.

passwdall - Assign, change, or delete a password from all system accounts.

passwdall
passwdall -d

The passwdall command lets you assign a single password to the following system accounts:

root
daemon
bin
sys
adm
uucp
nuucp
sync
amiga
lp
listen
setup
powerdown
sysadm
checkfsys
makefsys
mountfsys
umountfsys
games
news
x
nobody

To assign the password, you log in as root, type passwdall , type the new password, and retype the new password. You use the same steps to change an existing password. passwdall uses /bin/passwd to assign the root password, then adds the password for the rest of the above users to /etc/shadow.

To remove a password that you assigned using passwdall , log in as root and type passwdall -d

/etc/shadow
