Change user passwords remotely

[greenmetal]

Hi all,

I want to give a access to few users access to particular directory. I know how to use the .htaccess and .htpasswd files.

I can create the passwrord for the users but I want to give them the facility to change their password remotely.

I'm using Apache on Win NT. I have perl. Can u suggest me that will do the trick.

I know about 'user_manage' program but it works only on unix.

Thanx for the comments.

Tam

write a small cgi script with access to your passwd file or whatever NT calls it and thus allow them to make changes to their passwords. It should not take much.

Question is what should I do with the encryption that Apache produces. Is it possible to make the CGI script encode and decode the password.
