Change things slightly so this message says "local" or "YP" as needed
so we can use it for both NIS and local password changes without
confusing people.
password strings when DES isn't used; somehow the encrypted password
is corrupted and it winds up containing control chars, which yppasswdd
subsequently rejects. This breaks yppasswd on non-DES FreeBSD systems
using NIS.
Fix: scrap getnewyppasswd() entirely and use getnewpasswd() from
local_password.c, since it already works properly and is virtually
identical to getnewyppasswd() anyway. (Wish I'd noticed this sooner.)
This fixes a problem just reported on comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc.

Point out that a date specification _must_ follow the time of day
spec, in the man page. This clarifies the last point PR # of bin/483:

restricted. Am I the only one who sees the absurdity of having chfn be
a link to chpass, and then denying users permission to use chpass to
change their full names?
Of course, chpass has a much more severe bug in it, which is that it
allows users to change their password database info without first
asking them for their password. I hope to fix this at some point
so that I can merge ypchpass, ypchfn, ypchsh and chpass into one
program (password authentication is required for changing NIS data).

that it can't contact an NIS server when asked to change the password
of an invalid user. It should say 'unknown user' instead.
The fix is to check for the _PW_KEYYPENABLED flag in the password
database and only roll over into the yppasswd stuff if the flag
is enabled (this means passwd will not behave as yppasswd if
there are no +::::::::: entries in /etc/master.passwd). If
NIS is enabled but the user says 'passwd -l foouser' where
foouser exists in the NIS maps, but not in /etc/master.passwd,
we also say 'unknown user.' This is so we don't outsmart ourselves:
specifying the -l flag restricts passwd to the local password database
even if NIS is enabled.
This change should probably be merged into 2.1.
