I have pam installed and my password file is shadowed using the shadow
utilities rpm. I'm wondering if there is any way to assign an empty
password to an account without getting the password: prompt? I want to do
this for two accounts, one is a bbs account, the other is used for new
user registration. The password: prompt is kind of annoying me. When I
used 3.0.3 it would go right into the shell or program after login: if the
account had an empty password. Is this possible or am I out of luck? 
Thanks for the help!
