Fair enough.  You might also want to remember the 'man -k' command:

xor# man -k passwd
k5passwd(1), kpasswd(1) - Kerberos 5 password changing program
kpasswdd(8)              - Kerberos 5 password changing server
opiepasswd(1)            - Change or set a user's password for the OPIE aut=
hentication  system
passwd(1), yppasswd(1)   - modify a user's password
passwd(5)                - format of the password file
rpc.yppasswdd(8)         - server for updating NIS passwords
