I am logged in as a regular user: nobody.  I want nobody to chnage the
password for regular user: somebody.  nobody has somebody's password and
the attempt: 'su -c /usr/bin/passwd somebody' tried to change nobody's
password, not somebody's.  Does anyone know why and what I can do to fix
it?
Thanks!
