Synopsis: passwd changes wrong password

State-Changed-From-To: open-closed
State-Changed-By: jkh
State-Changed-When: Thu Jun 1 14:50:17 PDT 1995
State-Changed-Why: 
This is not a bug.  su changes only the effective uid, and if you
wish to change the password for someone else then this isn't the way to do it.
Do a `passwd root' or login to root properly.
