Already tried, but still no result. Repeat the problem again:
1. In root terminal I add a user using : #useradd student
2. In root terminal I want to set the password for the user student :
#passwd student
and all other options #passwd --stdin <user_name>
3. Now it waits for 2 seconds and gives error, and I was unable to set
password for that user.
