--- Begin Message ---Package: passwd Version: 1:4.0.13-7 Severity: wishlist # COLUMNS=7777 man passwd|spell TheUNIX # passwd Enter new UNIX password: Retype new UNIX password: Looks like I'm connected to an AT&T UNIX machine. Better to say Linux or better yet the hostname itself, in case one is ssl'ed several layers thick and must be sure about what machine one is changing the passwd of. Also on the man page the long --options are not in the SYNOPSIS, and these passwd [-x max] [-n min] [-w warn] [-i inact] login should probably be passwd [-x MAX_DAYS] [-n MIN_DAYS] [-w WARN_DAYS] [-i INACTIVE_DAYS] login to match the below part of the man page, or at least say passwd [-x days] [-n days] [-w days] [-i days] login and INACTIVE should be INACTIVE_DAYS to match the others... Also $ passwd Changing password for jidanni (current) UNIX password: Enter new UNIX password: Retype new UNIX password: Bad: new password is too short Only now you tell me, after having typed it twice. Enter new UNIX password: Retype new UNIX password: User cannot ^C out of it. User thinks oh no, my password will now be some control chars I hit trying to escape. Sorry, passwords do not match passwd: Authentication information cannot be recovered Better to say "password unchanged". "Authentication information cannot be recovered" sounds like he just deleted his account.
