Hello, Consider the following scenario:
$ whoami jschauma $ su - jdoe Password: $ whoami jdoe $ passwd Changing password for jschauma. Old Password: That is, passwd(1) will act on the current login name as returned by getlogin(2), regardless of whatever the current (effective or real) UID may be. This came as a surprise to me. Brief testing suggests that at least some other platforms do not behave this way. Bug or feature? -Jan
