I need some help using the password plugin.My users are stored in local accounts (/etc/passwd) in the same machine as Roundcube.I am wondering if with the chpasswd driver of the plugin is possible to allow my users to change their passwords.I am using OpenSuse 11.1.
Thank you

I have the same setup (local accounts, same machine as roundcube).  I have enabled the chpasswd driver, but when I try and change a password it says, "Could Not Save New Password."

Any help would be appreciated.

Update:  I have the chpasswd driver working with 0.4-beta on Fedora 11 with Apache.  My users are local users.

Here's how I got it to work:

1: enable the "password" plugin that comes with roundcube.
2: set it to use the chpasswd driver
3: type visudo
4: Add the following lines in this order(replace "apache" with the account that your apache install runs under and make sure you have the correct path to the chpasswd program):

    Defaults:apache !requiretty
    apache   ALL=NOPASSWD:   /usr/sbin/chpasswd

This plugin allows the user to change their password from the comfort of their webmail interface when it's stored in a SQL database

I also need help with the password utility. Can't get it to work... I am using postfix with virtual mailboxes and the virtual users and passwords are stored in /home/virtualmailbox/passwd and /home/virtualmailbox/shadow. Passwords are stored in CRAM-MD5, generated with dovecotpw.

Is there some way of doing this? Thank you!

Never mind, I made a custom script to change virtual mailbox passwords, I also modified the chpasswd.php file to work with dovecotpw and virtual mailbox accounts. Everything works perfectly now ;)

Hello,

A working solution (my fix) to get the chpasswd driver working in the password plugin, look over here:

Hi
[Newbie]
Is there anyone who might be able to assist me with configuring the roundcube password plugin on a webhost instance of roundcube?
I've followed the roundcube password configuration README, but it doesn't make the password change function enabled in the individual accounts. I have also seen a fe different approaches, but as of yet have not found one which just works.
Any help, guidance or suggestions are greatly appreciated.
