[imp] poppasswd.php3

[James Tavares]

Hi everyone,

First post to this list. I am active on some other lists, namely
qmail-ldap. (Really interesting, huh?)

And as such, here is my question: Does anyone know if a poppasswd server
that plays with LDAP? Interesting feature, except my users don't come out
of /etc/passwd.

Thanks,
James

:Hello Marcus,

:Yes, you need a program called (suprise!) "poppasswd". It  listens  to
:port 106 and talks a POP-like protocol that  allows  users  to  change
:their password.
