HPUX 11.23 only - how to useradd with a password?

On hpux 11.23, useradd does not support the -p

Looking for ideas to script-o-magically add an user with a password.

Ideally the password should be hashed in the script.

Thanks.

I don't know if it still works, but see this post.

Do you have a Trusted system?
No chance on a Trusted system without a C language program keyed with your password seed (program is not in the public domain).

There are simple dodges with a non-Trusted system.
