hi list, I´ve a problem: the good old linux passwd needs user input: passwd $user, and then twice the $newpassword. how must I write a script wich changes the password for $user to $newpassword without user input??? please please help!! I´ve heard, there must be the module "expect" but how must I use it here?? please write to [EMAIL PROTECTED] because I'm not on the mailing-list. thanks peter -- GMX - Die Kommunikationsplattform im Internet. http://www.gmx.net -- GMX Tipp: Machen Sie Ihr Hobby zu Geld bei unserem Partner 1&1! http://profiseller.de/info/index.php3?ac=OM.PS.PS003K00596T0409a -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
