Change Password

I am running on Sun Solaris 7.5.

I am looking for a scrip that will accept the user name, old password, and new password and change the users password.

Can any one help?

Get and install expect (http://expect.nist.gov/), there are some password tools in the expect examples that will do what you need. A simple script won't do it because of the interactive nature of passwd.

Thank you for the lead.

I downloaded and installed tcl, tk, and expect.

When I try to run the example
chess.exp
I get the following message

dynamic linker : tclsh8.3 : error opening libtcl8.3.so

Can you help me with this...

I will increase the points if you can.

If not I will accept as is.
Do a
'find / -name libtcl8.3.so -print'
and tell me the directory it's listed in and give me a printout of 'env'.
