change user password through api

Is it possible to change the password for an user through the api when you'r logged in as admin? and how ..

If this isnt possible is it possible to change it throught the users account then? .. and how

Tnx for helping.


PS. I really need the ablility to change a users password through the api or something else, however it has to be done.

Is there also a possibility to create files throught the api, if not what would be the best way for this?

I do not think it is possible. Have a more detailed search at http://directadmin.com/api.htm
I just skimmed.

Not that I know of and I don't know why it would be needed. You can use file manipulation in your script to accomplish what you need.

There has to be a way to change the password, someone?

problems fixed

Did you find a way to do it through the API?
You could also just have your script use shell's builtin functions to do this (passwd)

How did you do this? I STILL dont see anything inside the control panel that allows admin to change teh user password...

kinda retarded to not have it
