Default script add user with encrypted password

Hi,

I try to write a batch file to add a user or multiple users with encrypted passwords in the batch.

What i have done :
encrypt yeti
give me -> $2a$06$dY6sS5vY1l7xD/CXHH2ezuMK5TVUiqEkmDvYUBJct9/Zfksjcm97C

So i try it in my batch :
useradd -c "YETI" -d /home/yeti -m -s /bin/ksh \
-p $2a$06$dY6sS5vY1l7xD/CXHH2ezuMK5TVUiqEkmDvYUBJct9/Zfksjcm97C \
-G users,wheel yeti

The problem, when i launch the batch file, shell give me the value of $2 of my encrypted password, how can i fix it ?
Thanks

Minor nit.

The Microsoft world refers to commands placed into a file for automated execution as batch files. The Unix world refers to the same files as scripts. Most likely the difference is because Microsoft for most of its existence had limited control of execution flow built into its command processors, plus Microsoft had a strong alliance to IBM.

In contrast, the Unix world has traditionally integrated richer languages into its shells since early in its history.
