it's just a normal user account... use the passwd command.

i don't understand the text yo've highlighted there... can you rephrase it? what does changing a "password by user" mean?

If it is a normal user, you just have to dio the folllowing:
instead of USER, type the name of the user you want to change the passwod

."TEXT"<-- these are the echos from passwd.

Code:

passwd USER
"enter new UNIX password:"type your password, you wish to give.
"retype new password :"retype it
"passwort changed successfull"
well, this is all, what to do
