I am still trying out schemes to change passwords via a web page.

Most solutions that people have suggested seem to use poppassd.

I have compiled the port of v1.2 under FreeBSD 2.2-BETA but can't get it 
to behave.

It gets to the point where it asks for a new password which I submit via the
newpass <password> string but poppassd then returns

500 Unable to change password.

Noting other than a failed attempt gets entered into it's log.

Obviously other people have gotten the thing to run so it must be my
configuration.

Does poppassd require any special support programs, libraries, or kernel 
options for it to work? 

Or is there a better ISP quality password change daemon around?

- Ernie.
