46 When run by the super-user, \fIlppasswd\fR can add new accounts
47 (\fI-a username\fR), change existing accounts (\fIusername\fR),
48 or delete accounts (\fI-x username\fR) in the digest password
49 file. Digest usernames do not have to match local UNIX usernames.

55 Specifies a group other than the default system group.
57 The \fIlppasswd\fR command is installed setuid to root. While
58 every attempt has been made to make it secure against exploits
59 that could grant super-user privileges to unprivileged users,
60 paranoid system administrators may wish to disable or change the
61 ownership of the program to an unprivileged account.
