Did this today to no avail. It prompts me for a new password, then says
that tokens are updated. When I log in as root it prompts for password,
but won't accept anything. When I log in as a user it doesn't even ask
for a password and refeshes the log in screen.
I think I will just reinstall, but it bothers me that something like
this can happen and I don't know how to fix it.
