Dear FreeBSD Users, I have three FreeBSD 4.1-RELEASE machines here, and all have the same problem. If a normal user (i.e. not root, not in wheel group) tries to change their password, the following occurs: su-2.03$ passwd passwd: Permission denied However, the following works: su-2.03$ passwd my_user_name Changing local password for my_user_name. Old password: I've read a few messages similar to this in the archives but there were no answers. Is this normal behavior? Please cc replies to my email address.
