Thanks Jacob!!

There is another problem preventing me from doing this right away, but that should be cleared up.  And thanks for the link.

You can use

        PWC ADD email@address desired_password

or

        PWC REP email@address desired_password

(The latter will also replace an existing password, whereas the former only works for accounts that don't have a password set already.)

More information about PWC (and other administrative commands) can be found at
