This was discussed here recently in Reset unix passwords via Perl? (see also script to verify password). I expect you'll need ssh and something like Expect or Net::SSH::Expect for this. Oh, and please edit your post, inserting code tags around your code (see Markup in the Monastery and Writeup Formatting Tips for how to do that).	[reply]
