When you add a user with 5.1 it appears to be breaking a standard (discussed this with a long-time linux user) but the big problem I found was when adding an account for myself other than root my password showed up in /etc/password file IN PLAIN VIEW! It was NOT encrypted until I ran passwd on it. Then it was encrypted. This is a serious bug that needs to be rectified due to ANYONE monitoring that file (/etc/password) they would be able to get users passwords. I mailed redhat and got a response to come and post the bug here. So here it is. Email me if there is a patch out to fix this already, but I haven't located one.
The -p option to adduser is to set the *encrypted* password; it assumes whatever you give it is already encrypted. Notice if you try to use whatever you specified to -p to login that it won't work...
