Change login password for SFTP Only ID
Hi All,
I have an SFTP server where there are user id's created for vendors and given only SFTP access for them (eg: given below)
jim.tran:x:10040:10008:abc.def@ghi.com:/dropbox:/bin/false
They cannot login to the server via SSH and can only do an SFTP. These users are set up as jailed users (chroot jail) and has a password which is expiring every 90 days. They might be using different tools to connect to the server like Core FTP, Filezilla, Putty sftp etc.
Question is how can these users change their password by themselves even before the passwords get expired ?
Thanks,
Sabari Nath S

net::sftp::foreign::compat
Net::SFTP::Foreign::Compat(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Net::SFTP::Foreign::Compat(3pm)
NAME
Net::SFTP::Foreign::Compat - Adaptor for Net::SFTP compatibility
SYNOPSIS
use Net::SFTP::Foreign::Compat;
my $sftp = Net::SFTP::Foreign::Compat->new($host);
$sftp->get("foo", "bar");
$sftp->put("bar", "baz");
use Net::SFTP::Foreign::Compat ':supplant';
my $sftp = Net::SFTP->new($host);
DESCRIPTION
This package is a wrapper around Net::SFTP::Foreign that provides an API (mostly) compatible with that of Net::SFTP.
Methods on this package are identical to those in Net::SFTP except that Net::SFTP::Foreign::Attributes::Compat objects have to be used
instead of Net::SFTP::Attributes.
If the ":supplant" tag is used, this module installs also wrappers on the "Net::SFTP" and Net::SFTP::Attributes packages so no other parts
of the program have to modified in order to move from Net::SFTP to Net::SFTP::Foreign.
Setting defaults
The hash %Net::SFTP::Foreign::DEFAULTS can be used to set default values for Net::SFTP::Foreign methods called under the hood and otherwise
not accesible through the Net::SFTP API.
The entries currently supported are:
new => @opts
extra options passed to Net::SFTP::Foreign constructor.
get => @opts
extra options passed to Net::SFTP::Foreign::get method.
put => @opts
extra options passed to Net::SFTP::Foreign::put method.
ls => @opts
extra options passed to Net::SFTP::Foreign::ls method.
