I have a server running freebsd 4.8. When you type the command "passwd" it hangs for more than 2 minutes before it finally responds and prompts to change an existing users password.
Can anyone shed some light on this issue?
That sounds a lot like an NIS timeout. Are you using NIS, or do you have a domainname set? Try running "passwd -l" and see whether that goes faster...
