There are probably a few zillions of these around the net, though probably not a large number have been made public. I would personally like one written in perl that deals with NIS passwords. I would write it myself (someday when time allows), but I bet it's already out there if I knew where to look. I can think of no good reason to write it in C. How many hits does a password changing web page ever really get, even at a busy place like hotmail? -Mitch >Hi everyone, > >I found a very nice web enable password changing script written in c that >currently works in linux and solaris.
