I did this by installing the poppassd daemon and then writing a PHP class to call poppassd with the username, old password and new password and poppassd did all the work for me :) I guess you could write something similar in Perl. If you want the PHP source code then let me know. -- Regards, +-----------------------+---------------------------------+ | Peter Kiem | E-Mail : <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | | Zordah IT | Mobile : +61 0414 724 766 | | IT Consultancy & | WWW : www.zordah.net | | Internet Hosting | ICQ : "Zordah" 866661 | +-----------------------+---------------------------------+ _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
