    Hey all. Just wondering what actually happens when a user changes their password through the webmail interface. I know the passwords are stored in the ~/etc/domain/shadow file, but is there a command to use at the shell instead of the gui? Trying to write a script, and looking for this info. Thanks for the help.

    ryan.
