NAME
       initpw - Initialize the auth2 password database

SYNOPSIS
       initpw [ -k key ]

DESCRIPTION
       initpw  initializes  the	 auth2 password database by reading entries as
       specified in passwd.coda(5)  and	 writes	 the  corresponding  encrypted
       entries to stdout.

       initpw supports the following command line options:

       -k     Using  the -k option allows you to specify the encryption key to
	      use when encrypting cleartext  passwords.	  Currently  you  must
	      give "drseuss " as the key.

EXAMPLE
       initpw -k "drseuss " < /vice/db/passwd.coda > /vice/db/auth2.pw
