    Abstract: A method of replicating a UNIX password from a source computer to a delimited set of target computers performed by an application executing on a computer system. The method comprises receiving an identity of a source computer, determining a date of a UNIX password associated with a user identity configured on the source computer, determining that the UNIX password associated with the user identity configured on the source computer is less than a predefined number of days old, receiving identities of a plurality of target computers, reading an encrypted UNIX password associated with the user identity from the source computer, and, for each of the target computers, writing the encrypted UNIX password into an entry associated to the user identity in a password file on the target computer.
