I need something that will allow people who do not know the root 
password to reset passwords on a DG/UX system (that is using 
shadow passwords).

Basically what I'm wanting to do is write something that will be 
used as a specific user, so when you log on as that user it asks 
what account you would like to reset the password for, makes sure 
it is not root, then assigns a default password such as abc123 
that must be changed at the next login.

Any tips on how to go about writing something like this? 

A sample session should look like this:

login: resetpassword
password: 
What account would you like to reset? 
$users account reset, must be changed at next login.
exit
