This program is used to change the password of a list of virtual users. The
list is read from standard input. Each line in the list contains the user's
name and new pass phrase, seperated by whitespace. It will attempt to
change the password for each listed user. If any step fails, a warning is
issued and processing continues with the next line. Any input folling the
password is ignored.

You must have either created the users subdirectory by hand or run the
<EM>vsetup</EM> program before using this program.
<P>
This program expects the environment variable <CODE>HOME</CODE> to be set, and executes a change directory to the contents of it before
starting. It is also required that you change user to the domain owner
before using these utilities.
