Hello: I'm having trouble w/ DEC OSF/1 V2.0 Enhanced Security. Just yesterday, the passwd program decided to be very friendly and let anyone (except root) change anyone else's password. I wrote a wrapper for it so that it can't do that anymore. Any user can type "passwd username" to change anyone's password WITHOUT supplying the old password. If the user types just "passwd" then they have to supply their old password before they can change it. Strangely, when root attempts to change someone else's password, the "Old password:" prompt is given. It's almost like it's reversing the result when checking whether the user should have to supply the old password. Check your OSF/1 systems. Any ideas are welcome. -timmo Tim DiLauro Milton S.
