Problems setting password.
Apologize my grammar and lacking of details robin
My system is Solaris 10. The Usernames and passwords are to log in into the system.When a user use any usernames from the list above, he can use any passwords and get access to the system.Even worse, he can omit the last two digits or add other two digits which not included in the list,ie. oshopp99, and get access to the system as well. Any suggestion where i should look into?
cheers

nwfstime

NWFSTIME(1)							     nwfstime							       NWFSTIME(1)

NAME

       nwfstime - Display / Set a NetWare server's date and time

SYNOPSIS

       nwfstime [ -h ] [ -S server ] [ -U user name ] [ -P password | -n ] [ -C ] [ -s ]

DESCRIPTION

       nwfstime displays a NetWare server's date and time. You can also set a NetWare server's date and time from the local time.

OPTIONS

       -h
	  With -h nwfstime prints a little help text.

       -S server
	  is the name of the server you want to use.

       -U user
	  user is the user name to use for login. To set the server's time, you need supervisor privileges.

       -P password
	  password  is	the password to use for login. If neither -n nor -P are given, and the user has no open connection to the server, nwfstime
	  prompts for a password.

       -n
	  -n should be given if no password is required for the login. As you need supervisor privileges for  setting  the  date  and  time,  this
	  option is probably not used very often.

       -C
	  By default, passwords are converted to uppercase before they are sent to the server, because most servers require this. You can turn off
	  this conversion by -C.

       -s
	  With -s, nwfstime sets the file server's date and time according to the local date and time.
