hello,
 mkpasswd is not working in fc2 and RHL 9. if i type mkpasswd it
generates a random password. if i say mkpasswd -v temp it generates a
new password i get following:
-----------
spawn passwd temp
Changing password for user temp.
New UNIX password: %PpnV40bt
------------
but the password of temp remains the old one. new passwd is not
applied. i am using
expect-5.39.0-96.1 .
One more thing. I have been using older versions of expect on older
versions of linux and it is working perfectly. I tried those older
versions of expect also on RHL 9 but still mkpasswd not working.
WHAT COULD BE THE POSSIBLE PROBLEM.
thanks
