Got confused with the usage myself, the way to use this is to type:

chpasswd <Enter>

then on each lin you type in

username:new_passwordusername2:new_password2

1 user per line

When your done you can use <ctrl> D and your passwords will get changed.

is this also for Cpanel or just linux users change passwords ?
CP accounts also have a linux account (that's how file permissions are handled) so for short...

Yes
Thanks
