Hello I Even asked on the freebsd-questions but noone could help me about
this.
on my Miata I got this error if I try to change password

durlindana{fddi}[~]> passwd
passwd: Permission denied


this does not accour if  I am root.
The permissions are:

-r-sr-xr-x  2 root  wheel  46208 Apr 21 23:34 /usr/bin/passwd
they look ok.

what it could be ??
thanks

Rick
