+     P\bPa\bas\bss\bsw\bwd\bd changes the user's Kerberos password.  First, the user is prompted
+     for their current password.  If the current password is correctly typed,
+     a new password is requested.  The new password must be entered twice to
+     avoid typing errors.
+
+     The new password should be at least six characters long and not purely
+     alphabetic.  Its total length must be less than _PASSWORD_LEN (currently
+     128 characters).  Numbers, upper case letters and meta characters are en-
+     couraged.
+
+     Once the password has been verified, p\bpa\bas\bss\bsw\bwd\bd communicates the new password
+     information to the Kerberos authenticating host.
+
+     -\b-l\bl    This option causes the password to be updated only in the local
+           password file, and not with the Kerberos database.  When changing
+           only the local password, pwd_mkdb(8) is used to update the password
+           databases.
+
+     To change another user's Kerberos password, one must first run kinit(1)
+     followed by passwd(1).  The super-user is not required to provide a us-
+     er's current password if only the local password is modified.
