cimmo, you're reporting two cases, one of those is mistaken.

1) If you change the password of the user on the commandline with
'passwd' while you're editing the user with userconfig, you can expect
that whatever you confirm last prevails. That is, if you use 'passwd'
and then confirm via userconfig, the password you've set with passwd is
lost.

2) The second case you're reporting (a new user's password is set to the
one of the previous new user) is a bug indeed. I've committed a fix for
that one to svn, it'll probably make it into Edgy. Don't know about
Dapper (i.e. if it's grave enough to backport). Attached patch fixes it.
Can you try the patch, and if it doesn't fix the second case you report,
reopen the bug with an explanation how to reproduce it?

Thanks for keeping an eye on it though!
