Re: BusyBox passwd requires root privileges

Make sure it's owned by root, and chmod 4755 the binary.  I'm not sure

commands and the other with the rest.

I chmod 4755 to the passwd binary and it worked.  Before I did that I also
added a Busybox.conf file in /etc with this in it...
[SUID]
passwd = ssx root.root

I don't know if I needed that or not but it works now. Thanks
