Hello all.
I've a linux server that runs a mailserver for several users. I want to build a page where users can change their email password, that's their accounts password.
how can i with PHP manage to compare the password they type in a web form with the one they have in the system ?? (/etc/passwd) ??
can it be with LDAP ? or PAM ? or any other method ?
cheers !
