I have a script and want to ask the user for some information, the script cannot continue until the user fills in this information. The following is my attempt at putting a command into a loop to achieve this but it doesn't work for some reason.
echo "Please change password"
while passwd
do
echo "Try again"
done
I have tried many variations of the while loop:
while `passwd`
while [[ "`passwd`" -gt 0 ]]
while [ `passwd` -ne 0 ]]
# ... And much more
But I can't seem to get it to work.
until passwd
do
echo "Try again"
done
or
while ! passwd
do
echo "Try again"
done
