I don't have OS X, but every time I create a new test user on linux and log
in to test it, I get bit by the fact that the passwd change always asks for
the existing password first, before asking for the new password. So I have
to enter the original password once to login, once to make passwd happy,
and then enter the new password. Are you sure the dialog box isn't asking
for the existing password first?
