[Webcalendar] Disappearing passwords

   This list seems pretty quiet, but I suppose it's the best place to
ask.

   I recently installed WebCalendar 2.9.0 on a White Box 3.0 system
running Apache HTTPd 2.0.46 and Perl 5.8.3.  Any time I change a
calendar's password (from the Options page) a blank password field is
written to the passwd file.  Because of this, any password will be
accepted as valid for that account. This is happening with all
calendars on the system.
   I have tried starting with an empty password file, pre-populating
with the "pswd" program, and switching between mod_perl and straight
CGI.  I tested the password routine (webcalAuth::ChangeUserPassword)
by hand, and it works as expected.  The webcalConfig.pm file looks
sane, and I added "'authbackend' => 'default'", without any benefit.  

   Has anyone else seen this behavior?  Any ideas?

If you're right 90% of the time, why quibble about the remaining 3%?
