Passwd command slow

[Greg Goodman]

Hello Everyone,

I have a server running freebsd 4.8.
When you type the command "passwd" it hangs for more than 2 minutes
before it finally responds and prompts to change an existing users
password.

Can anyone shed some light on this issue?

Thanks for the help.
