Thanks to many people for their ideas. A few people said NIS, which
isn't an option, and someone, who obviously lives in a world with blue
sky (it's purple in my world), who said the application owners should be
responsible for their passwords.
The other responses came in 2 varities: use expect to interact with the
passwd command or use sed/awk/perl to edit the shadow file.
Thanks to all who answered, if you have an opening for a 7 year Solaris
admin in your blue sky world please let me know, the purple is begining
to drive me crazy.
