according to src/usr.bin/passwd/passwd.c:
...
/* check where the user's from */
switch (pwd->pw_fields & _PWF_SOURCE) {
case _PWF_FILES:
fprintf(stderr, "Changing local password for %s\n",
pwd->pw_name);
break;
case _PWF_NIS:
fprintf(stderr, "Changing NIS password for %s\n",
pwd->pw_name);
break;
default:
/* XXX: Green men ought to be supported via PAM. */
errx(1,
"Sorry, `passwd' can only change passwords for local or NIS users.");
}
...
If you change default: behaviour you CAN change your password. Currently,
passwd is not fully PAM-aware.
