Dear, I have a Linux box authenticating SSH users against Freeradius. It works OK.

When the users go into the Linux box via SSH, I need them to change their own radius passwords. For this reason, I edited the /etc/pam.d/passwd file as follow:

password   sufficient   pam_radius_auth.so

@include   common-auth

in order to communicate with our freeradius and change the user's password executing the "passwd" command in the shell.

But te passwords never chages and I get this error:

Password:
New password:
New password (again):
Enter new UNIX password:
Retype new UNIX password:
passwd: Authentication token manipulation error
passwd: password unchanged

is it possible to do what I want ??

Special thanks.
