Re: How to change the unix passwd from 4gl /SPL

I also recommend a stored procedure call over SPC, since we know any Informix client can call a stored procedure with no new front-end pieces. However, I'd recommend against writing a C program which directly modifies the passwd/shadow file. Instead, according (with much thanks to Lester Knutsen, who responded to my earlier question), try the public domain utility to interact with TTY programs (such as "passwd") called "Expect". It is available on the Internet: Use your favorite search engine, since I don't have the address handy. ...Terry. tgauch@aol.com
