Hello I am new to C but have learned alot so far, I tried to make a
simple password program, but it didn't turn out to be so simple.  I
can't get it to work.  I get this error:
    password.c: In function `main':
    password.c:22: invalid lvalue in assignment
please help me figure out what is wrong.

#include <stdio.h>

main()
{
char name[30],password[50];   /* enough ?? */

    printf("login: ");
    scanf("%s",name);
    printf("password: ");
    scanf("%s",password);

    if(&name="fozzy")       /* ,&password==bear */
    {
        printf("Welcome %s\n");
    }
    else
    {
        print("You Do Not Have authorisation To Use This Computer!");
        print("This Attempt Will Be Logged When I Learn How");
    }

    /*  return 0;  */
}
