changing the passwd

[Reimar Bauer]

Dear all

I like to use gpg for a project to handle user accounts on a web application. 
So I need a way a user could change his pasphrase by a dialogue over ssl of a 
webserver.
I tried a while and found out yes it could be changed but it is not changed to 
the passphrase I want.
Please could you give me a hint what I am doing wrong.

The syntax I uses:

echo "old" | gpg --command-fd 0 --yes --textmode --no-tty --edit-key mykey 
passwd newpass save

If I do this on a text terminal the passphrase is changed but it is not 
newpass.

best regards

Reimar
