Subject: passwd(1): These commands may be run only on a terminal
Date: Sun, 3 May 2015 00:23:48 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <55459fd59ac3c1faf5e94246c6e99a50@u2.inri> (raw)

From passwd(1):

     BUGS
          Now that cpu connections are always encrypted, the only good
          reason to require that these commands be run only on termi-
          nals is concern that the CPU server might be subverted.

Now that I am providing cpu accounts for some 9front developers, I have
a use case for allowing users to change their own passwords.

Should these commands be changed so that they may be run on cpu servers?
