    The options <literal>hashedPassword</literal>,
    <literal>password</literal> and <literal>passwordFile</literal>
    controls what password is set for the user.
    <literal>hashedPassword</literal> overrides both
    <literal>password</literal> and <literal>passwordFile</literal>.
    <literal>password</literal> overrides <literal>passwordFile</literal>.
    If none of these three options are set, no password is assigned to
    the user, and the user will not be able to do password logins.
    If the option <literal>users.mutableUsers</literal> is true, the
    password defined in one of the three options will only be set when
    the user is created for the first time. After that, you are free to
    change the password with the ordinary user management commands. If
    <literal>users.mutableUsers</literal> is false, you cannot change
    user passwords, they will always be set according to the password
    options.
