Thanks Gemes,
i got it figuered out!!!
here is my script... (for others who seek the same answer)
#!/usr/bin/expect
#
# .htpasswd must be initialized by the beginning of the script
# first run proform a
# htpasswd -c passwordfile user
set timeout 5
# Setting Variables
set user [lindex $argv 0]
set password [lindex $argv 1]
set htpasswdfile "/etc/samba/.htpasswd"
set vhtpasswd "/usr/bin/htpasswd"
set vpasswd "/usr/bin/passwd"
# Start passwd
spawn "$vpasswd" "$user"
expect "*password:*" {
sleep 0.5
send "$password\r"
}
expect "*password:*" {
sleep 0.5
send "$password\r"
}
# Only if Passwd is succesful start htpasswd
expect "*passwd:*successfully*" {
spawn "$vhtpasswd" "$htpasswdfile" "$user"
expect "*password:" {
sleep 0.5
send "$password\r"
}
expect "*password:" {
sleep 0.5
send "$password\r"
}
}
expect eof
