I manage my users from the console, why am I unable to change a password?
Applies to: Netmax Linux L22Pv2.2 and earlier

When users are being administered from the command line and the /etc/passwd and/or /etc/shadow files are in the commit.conf file, you will need to use /usr/bin/passwd and NOT /usr/netmax/bin/passwd.
The /usr/bin/passwd will directly modify the /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow files.
