OpenBSD comes with its own encryption utility as well, which must be run on the password text `encrypt <password>`. following the code block above, i just included the base command in the code block. I wasn't quite sure where to add my change, so I put it at the bottom of the section since the rest all flows well together. +label: docsite_pr

SUMMARY
OpenBSD comes with its own encryption utility, which must be run on the password text,
encrypt <password>. following the code block above in the FAQ, i only included the base command in the code block. I wasn't quite sure where to add my change, so I put it at the bottom of the section since the rest all flows well together.ISSUE TYPE
COMPONENT NAME
FAQ section in the docs
ANSIBLE VERSION
N/A the command is in the host system, not a part of Ansible.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
It took me a while poking around to figure out that the ansible user module wasn't properly encrypting the password for OpenBSD. It appears to work fine for FreeBSD from my experience (2.2-2.4). I thought the few of us in BSD-land would appreciate this little tid-bit.
