Originally I didn't but having tried a bunch of other ways I do now :-)

As Jan-Frode Myklebust pointed out, using /bin/passwd also makes sure
you obey whatever password complexity rules are set up (eg
/etc/default/passwd on Solaris or /etc/security/user on AIX).

Otherwise, you need a bunch of additional platform-specific code to
enforce that.

    Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
