macos 10.15.3, jamf binary version 10.19



I am using the command



/usr/local/bin/jamf createAccount -username "${name}"  -realname "${name}" 
-password "${passwd}" -home /var/"${name}" -admin -hiddenUser


It looks like it is working and I can see the user in dscl . list /Users but if I try login <name> and enter the password it fails with 'login incorrect'. It was working on a Mojave machine fine.

Had the same problem, was a config profile with Password Requirements that prevented my password from being accepted. No error though.
