Aye, that would work, but... here's the conundrum - to ensure that we reset the password locally on the client, we must have the password in plain text in a promise or script. Unless I compile a binary to do the actual work, and run it from cfengine. Or... is there a way that Cfengine can provide a means of protecting the password being used to run passwd or whatever mechanism to change the password. _______________________________________________ Help-cfengine mailing list Help-cfengine@cfengine.org https://cfengine.org/mailman/listinfo/help-cfengine
