password dialog box

Hello everyone!

I have a NIS environment where users are able to change their password
in an xterm with the passwd(1) command thusly;

passwd -r nis username

I do have bunch of less-than-savvy users though and I would like to be
able to offer password changes through a GUI tool. E.g. one that isn't
susceptible to strange escape characters when back-spacing and so on.
Something akin to the password changing dialog that one can get in
Microsoft Windows.

The current X window manager we're using is a version of olvwm, but I
have GTK and other libraries available so I'm happy to use whatever tool
you can think of.

I would be especially grateful if you could point out a bundled tool in
Solaris that fulfills my requirements.

Thank you,

-Alex
