Re: More secure 'passwd' module?

[Daniel W. <dan...@st...>]

Unfortunately this doesn't work with kerberos though, because you have
to get a token first before you can change the password.  So if you just
tell it to use kpasswd instead, it will try to change it and get an
error. Basically before you run the kpasswd, all you have to do is do a
kinit with the user login/pass, then you can run kpasswd.  So I think
it's simple, I just haven't dived into the setup of the password module
and would like to avoid it if someone else has done this...make sense?
