	The OP doesn't mention a distribution; so this may or may not 
help. But fwiw, alpine -h does contain a passfile line here; I'm running 
Alpine 2.0 under Fedora 10, installed and kept updated with yum -- iow, 
it just works. Something similar may be true with other major varieties 
of linux; I can't speak to anything else.
