Our Digital Unix computer used to run OK.
But a few days ago I found users could not change their password.
When type passwd and hit return key nothing happen and just like below:
                ksh:godzilla:/usr/users/zuh># passwd
                ksh:godzilla:/usr/users/zuh>#
But root still can run passwd as below:
                ksh:godzilla:/># passwd
                Changing password for root.

                New password:
I checked the file permission of /etc/passwd:
                ksh:godzilla:/># ls -l /etc/passwd
                -rwxr-xr-x 1 root system 2976 Mar 6 11:14
/etc/passwd
                ksh:godzilla:/>
It looks OK.

If you have any idea and clue for fixing this problem I will very
appreciate!
