.SH NAME
/etc/rpasswd.conf \- configuration file for remote password update client
.SH DESCRIPTION
The file
\fI/etc/rpasswd.conf\fR is read from
.BR rpasswd (1)
at startup to determine the name and port number of the server where
.BR rpasswdd (8)
is running.
Valid entries are
.PP
.B server
.I hostname
.RS
The
.BR rpasswdd (8)
daemon is running on server \fIhostname\fR.
.RE
.PP
.B port
.I number
.RS
The
.BR rpasswdd (8)
daemon is listening on port \fInumber\fR. The default port number
is \fI774\fR, which is defined as \fIrpasswd\fR in \fI/etc/services\fR.
.RE
.PP
.B reqcert
.I never|allow|try|hard
.RS
Specifies what checks to perform on server certificates in
a SSL session. The default for this option is
.IR hard .
.TP
.B never
\fIrpasswd\fR will not request or check any server certificate.
.TP
.B allow
The server certificate is requested. If no certificate is provided,
the session proceeds normally. If a bad certificate is provided, a
warning will be shown but the session proceeds normally.
.TP

the session proceeds normally. If a bad certificate is provided,
the session is immediately terminated.

.RE
.SH BUGS
The service \fIrpasswd\fR on port \fI774\fR in \fI/etc/services\fR
is not registerd for this program, only misused. It could be that
there is another daemon already running on this port, but I couldn't
find any software using this port.
