I received a reply from the help group that suggested I added a call to
flush in there, and that fixed it. The working code looks like this:
def setpassword(user):
password = "passworD\n"
try:
cmd = ' passwd {0}'.format(user)
pipe = Popen(p4 + cmd, shell=True, stdin=PIPE, st

Yes, I don't think the problem is that isn't running the command, I think it
is just that I don't know how to communicate with it in the way that I need
to in order to make this work. I have tried finding examples of working with
Popen, but they are few and far between. I am not sure what was wrong

You're not specifying the command
I just get an errorlevel from the executable when I read stdout, but I can't
tell what is going on because, of course, I can't tell what Popen is
actually doing. I never see the prompt from the executable that I would
expect to see when I read stdout.
I originally had the function like this:

Hi,
I have the following code that works fine in Python 2.x, but I can't seem to
get it to work in Python 3 with Popen. Can you please tell me how to get the

setpassword function. I have tried numerous ways to get this to work,
