| Provides a daemon for changing passwords over the network. This feature |
| is commonly used for TCP loopback password changing from web scripting |
| languages such as Perl and PHP, removing the requirement for setuid perl |
| scipts or running a web server process as root. This version of poppassd |
| has PAM support, and also optional support for cracklib enforcing the use |
| of strong passwords. Note that the protocol is plain text and so insecure |
| for all but loopback use. |
