Dear All:
I put a Web page in my server to allowing user to change password. I
use the cgi program "change-password" from NCSA (Sorry if I am wrong).
It seems it worked fine.
However, I encounter a problem that when the user change the password
with the page, they cannot login again with either old or new password.
I find out that the encryted string for the changed password becomes
"p4..........." in the password files...
What's wrong with my setup?
Thanks,
