Hi,

I am trying to add a new user to my RedHat 8.0 System running samba 2.2.7-1a
This is the error I get.

---------------------------------------
[root@localhost named]# useradd -g users mandy
[root@localhost named]# passwd mandy
Changing password for user mandy.
New password:
BAD PASSWORD: it is too short
Retype new password:
Failed to find entry for user mandy.

passwd: Authentication token manipulation error
-----------------------------------------

This error is only when I am creating a new user. Password sync happens if there is an 
existing user.
if after using useradd -g users mandy
I do a smbpassword -a mandy
then everything is fine....
What could be the problem...


Regards,
Keith
