  Modified:    usr.bin/chpass  table.c
  Log:
  Somewhere along the line, somebody decided to make the 'full name' field
  restricted. Am I the only one who sees the absurdity of having chfn be
  a link to chpass, and then denying users permission to use chpass to
  change their full names?
  
  Of course, chpass has a much more severe bug in it, which is that it
  allows users to change their password database info without first
  asking them for their password. I hope to fix this at some point
  so that I can merge ypchpass, ypchfn, ypchsh and chpass into one
  program (password authentication is required for changing NIS data).
