If I use the expect driver, the webpage always states that the update was succesful, even if I entered a wrong password or a too short new password.
I used the following lines in backends.php to get the script running with sudo:
------
$backends['sudo_passwd'] = array(
'name' => 'Webmail',
'preferred' => '',
'password policy' => array(),
'driver' => 'procopen',
'params' => array(
'program' => '/usr/bin/expect ' . dirname(__FILE__) . '/../scripts/passwd_expect -sudo'
)
);

New Attachment: passwd_expect[1]
Updates version, includes comments and fixed a small bugCould you please add the following comments to the script? I forgot that myself....
# alter sudoers (using visudo) so it contains the following information:
# -----
# # Needed for Horde's passwd module
# Runas_Alias REGULARUSERS = ALL, !root
# apache ALL=(REGULARUSERS) NOPASSWD:/usr/bin/passwd
# -----
Committed, thanks.
Can you please explain why this doesn't work with the expect driver, and how made it work with the procopen driver?
New Attachment: passwd_expect
Apologies, other projects demanded my attention...
I merged it into the passwd_expect.

Summary ⇒ Script for passwd which uses sudo
I didn't like the current possibilities and decided to copy one of the expect scripts and change it to use sudo.
I could not get it to work with the 'expect' driver, but with the 'procopen' driver it works great!
