- To create an account with a locked/disabled password on Linux systems, set this to V('!') or V('*').
- To create an account with a locked/disabled password on OpenBSD, set this to V('*************').
- B(OS X/macOS:) Enter the cleartext password as the value. Be sure to take relevant security precautions.
