LOGIN_CHPASS(8) System Manager's Manual LOGIN_CHPASS(8)

login_chpass — change password authentication type

login_chpass [-s service] user [class]

The login_chpass utility is typically called from login(1). It is functionally the same as calling the program: “passwd user”. This will use the login_lchpass(8) utility to change the user's local password.

Only the login service is supported. See login.conf(5). The class argument is not used.

login(1), passwd(1), login.conf(5), login_lchpass(8)
