Subject: how to set a passwd for a user

Hello: I did a mkpasswd -d <My Domain Name>, grepped for my username and
added that line to /etc/passwd file. The passwd shows up as
"unused_by_nt/2000/xp". How do I set the passwd?

rmalghan:unused_by_nt/2000/xp:11904:10513:Malghan,
Ravi,U-STERLING\rmalghan,S-1-5-21-357909863-1982466852-483988704-1904:/home/
rmalghan:/bin/bash

Thanks in advance
Ravi
