I have a problem with 'passwd' crashing with 'Segmentation fault':

# passwd voytek
Changing password for user voytek.
New password:
(data fseek failed): Invalid argument
Segmentation fault

BUT, if I use 'webmin', I can alter passwords OK.

does anyone know: does 'webmin' uses a different tool that 'passwd' to alter
passwords ?

is there any reason why I shouldn't try re-installing 'passwd' with rpm ??

[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# rpm -qf /usr/bin/passwd
passwd-0.67-1

(I've just 'solved' a weired problem with Postfix by re-installing Postfix,
hence, I'm thinking I should do same with 'passwd')
