No passwd command on Ubuntu?

Morning all,

I'm trying to change the password of my user on an Ubuntu 12.04 box at work. I only have SSH access to the server, so I tried the command, and it told me it wasn't installed. So I tried installing it and was told it was already installed :/


	Code: user@machine:~$ passwd The program 'passwd' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: sudo apt-get install passwd user@machine:~$ sudo apt-get install passwd Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done passwd is already the newest version. 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 149 not upgraded.

What do I do? :/

Root also doesn't seem to be able to find passwd:


	Code: passwd user passwd: command not found
