I am a DBA by trade and don't do THAT much sysadmin work (mostly HP/UX 
anyway) but isn't it a questionable security policy for sysadmins to have 
the actual passwords for users?  I would think that it is a little more 
normal to have an admin account that can change the password when it is 
buggered up and then put an immediate expire on the password so that on 
next login it must be changed by the owner of the account.
