.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
.I Passwd
|
|
|
|
|
changes the invoker's Plan 9 password and/or APOP secret.
|
|
|
|
|
The Plan 9 password is used to login to a terminal while
|
|
|
|
|
the APOP secret is used for a number of external services:
|
|
|
|
|
POP3, IMAP, and VPN access. The optional argument specifies
|
|
|
|
|
the user name and authentication domain to use if different
|
|
|
|
|
than the one associated with the machine
|
|
|
|
|
.I passwd
|
|
|
|
|
is run on.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
The program first prompts for the old Plan 9 password in the specified
|
|
|
|
|
domain to establish
|
|
|
|
|
identity.
|
|
|
|
|
It then prompts for changes to the password and the
|
|
|
|
|
secret.
|
|
|
|
|
New passwords and secrets must be typed twice, to forestall mistakes.
|
|
|
|
|
New passwords must be sufficiently hard to guess.
|
|
|
|
|
They may be of any length greater than seven characters.

By default, passwd requires the auth server to support
|
|
|
|
|
.IR dp9ik (6).

The

to authenticate using

.SH BUGS
|
|
|
|
|
Now that
|
|
|
|
|
.I cpu
|
|
|
|
|
connections are always encrypted, the only good reason
|
|
|
|
|
to require that these commands be run only on terminals
|
|
|
|
|
is concern that the CPU server might be subverted.
