Odd problem changing passwords
Ok so it's really not a problem, but I want to know why...
On some of our Solaris 8 boxes here, users can simply change their passwords without having to enter their current password first...example below:
bash-2.03# passwd testuser1
New Password:
Re-enter new Password:
passwd: password successfully changed for testuser1
bash-2.03#
On other Solaris 8 systems, the same users are prompted for their current password prior to changing their passwords...example below:
bash-2.03$ passwd testuser1
Password:
Enter existing login password:
New password:
Re-enter new password:
passwd (SYSTEM): passwd successfully changed for testuser1
bash-2.03$
Why do I see the changes between the systems? It must be some sort of strict password enforcement, but I can't figure out where to set/unset this globally....any info would be appreciated!
