Using Config Change Template to change password in HP

On the HP, when you change the password, you do not give it on the command line. It prompts for the password twice. Is there a way to reproduce this using Config Change Templates? Is there another way to do this in NCM?

!Example:

flnewb-conf-pcy-l2s0(config)# password manager

New password for Manager: ***************

Please retype new password for Manager: ***************

flnewb-conf-pcy-l2s0(config)#

Bump!

Have you tried modifying the template so it outputs the PWD twice instead of only once?

My main complaint is that this feature needs an "expect" function to wait for output before proceeding or terminate with error. I may be able to fake out the prompt with two outputs, but that cludgy.

Have you tried running this as a simple script in NCM?
