add all the users to FreeIPA. But i'm getting an error and i'm not sure
why. I've also never gotten this in the past when adding users.
[root@freeipa01 ~]# ipa user-add user.name --first=User --last=name
--email user.name(a)example.com --password basicpasswordtobechanged
ipa: ERROR: command 'user_add' takes at most 1 argument

Hi,
with ipa user-add, --password does not take any value but prompts you to
enter a value (and to confirm a second time). See the help:
$ ipa user-add --help
Usage: ipa [global-options] user-add LOGIN [options]
Add a new user.
Options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--first=STR First name
--last=STR Last name
[...]
--password Prompt to set the user password
If you want to avoid the prompt, you can do:
$ echo basicpasswordtobechanged | ipa user-add user.name --first=User
--last=name --email user.name(a)example.com --password
HTH
