Script to change UNIX password
My shop has just ordained that all UNIX passwords expire after 45 days. We do NOT have a "single logon" facility, so I will need to logon to each of the servers (15+) I interact with and change my password by hand. I thought I could invoke passwd inside a ksh script as a Here document and effectively change my password, stage this script on all the servers under my id, and then invoke via REXEC from one server.
Unfortunately, when I run passwd as a Here doc, it doesn't take my old/new password from stdin. Here's what I'm doing inside pass.sh: #!/usr/bin/ksh passwd <<EOF oldpassword newpassword newpassword EOF Does anyone have any thoughts on how I can "synchronize" all my passwords? (I don't have root privs - I'm a developer, not an administrator). |
