Change Passwd Via Telnet through a Perl WWW Script

[Phillip Hofmeister <plhofmei@zionlth.org>]

All,

I have been thinking about making a perl program that will open a socket to port 23 on the loopback and converse with login and passwd and change a password via a www page.  Does anyone have comments about security implications of this?  Does anyone have any feature requests?  Does a similar program exist to anyone's knowledge?

Thanks,
