Kedar,
Thank you that worked just fine.
I just checked the help usage again, and AS_ADMIN_USERPASSWORD is listed as
a "usable" field in the --passwordfile option, but it does not clarify that
it would be used in such context (it actually doesn't clarify what
AS_ADMIN_USERPASSWORD would be used for at all).
I would have thought that some mapping would have to exist (i.e.
AS_ADMIN_theUserBeingCreated=thePasswordToUse), other than blindly accepting
a set property for any user created with the create-file-user command.
Alas, this solution is sufficient enough for my needs, thank you

Alex,
Sorry you are running into it and the help does not offer much.
AFAIR, this can be used non-interactively. The key is specifying
something called AS_ADMIN_USERPASSWORD in the passwordfile as:
AS_ADMIN_USERPASSWORD=user's password
If such a property does not exist in the given passwordfile, asadmin
would prompt you for the password (if interactive flag is set, which
is set by default).
Let me know if that works.
