Hi All,

I am administering a Linux mailserver which is successfully running 
qpopper 4.0.3 for a number of months. A recent change in policy 
requires us to provide the users the ability to change their own 
passwords. Since the entire user base is running licensed copies of 
Eudora 5 which includes a "Change Password" button I am attempting 
to deploy the poppassd component to no avail. I have rebuilt the 
qpopper configuration and both binaries with no errors or even warnings; 
incorporated poppassd into xinetd and have watched a test user make 
the connection and exchange information with the server, but it dies 
while invoking passwd for the actual password change -- the user gets 
"tired of waiting for server" message and on the server the processes 
eventually time out (~10 mins) without completing their mission! I am 
lost as to how to proceed and what are my chances of success... All 
help will be greatly appreciated,

Jacob.
