1. install poppassd cd /usr/ports/mail/poppassd make install or pkg_add -r poppassd 2. enable poppassd in superserver vi /etc/inetd.conf add pop3pw stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/libexec/poppassd poppassd and restart inetd 3. download and install change_pass plugin. 4. test it. If it does not work, read README file included in plugin. Try changing password with 'telnet localhost 106'. You might want to replace inetd with xinetd and bind poppassd only to local interface or adjust your firewall settings poppassd is better because: a) you don't need to elevate user's privileges b) you provide tool that can be used by any email client that supports poppass protocol c) there are poppass servers written for PAM, NIS, shadow passwords, LDAP and courier authdaemon -- Tomas ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by OSTG.
