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?
