Changing a users password in /etc/passwd instead of NIS

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I would like a user to change his password on his local RHEL 3 account but when typing

passwd

it is going to NIS since this machine is a NIS client.

In Solaris there is a command

passwd -r files

which means to update the local files but I don't see that option in redhat.

How do I change the local account password for a user.

Thank You.
