We're down to exactly one user using the grexhash system.  If we can
get that user to login, we can safely eliminate the custom hashing code
in the coming upgrade.

That might be me. I just tried to change mine, but it won't let me. I get 'passwd: Permission denied.'

No, it's not you, but the problem with changing your password is almost
certainly that you have a custom PATH that doesn't include /suid/bin before
/usr/bin.

Looks like the problem is my path includes /usr/local/bin before /suid/bin. I'm not sure how that's happening. I don't set PATH in my .profile.

Hmm; that's actually right.

Okay, there's a wrapper script in /usr/local/bin that had the path to the real
password changing utility incorrect.  I have corrected it.

Well, nearly ten years have passed and much has changed. OpenBSD has
been  upgraded to version 6.1, and SHA-1 has been broken. Good thing we
changed to  bcrypt!
