通过编程或脚本更改Mac OS X用户密码

苹果公司介绍 CSIdentitySetPassword Mac OS 10.5中允许按如下方式更改密码的API:

#import <Collaboration/Collaboration.h>

    AuthorizationRef authRef = NULL; // You have to initialize authRef

    CBIdentityAuthority *authority = [CBIdentityAuthority defaultIdentityAuthority];
    CSIdentityRef identity = [CBIdentity identityWithName:user authority:authority].CSIdentity;
    if (CSIdentityGetClass(identity) == kCSIdentityClassUser) {
        CSIdentitySetPassword(identity, (__bridge CFStringRef)newPassword);
        CSIdentityCommit(identity, authRef, NULL);
    }
