I'm not at the box now, but if I remember, this worked just fine. I worked around it by changing to a password that was 8 characters long, instead of 6.... Maybe it's the password length? Maybe the user-create GUI uses passwd, then when I put in a less-than-8-characters password, passwd complained and the GUI didn't handle the error correctly? The question is, what DOES it set the password to, if passwd doesn't let it set the password to anything less than 8 characters? _______________________________________________ LinuxUsers mailing list LinuxUsers@socallinux.org http://socallinux.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linuxusers
