Hi Team
I m new to openSolaris and installed it using a live CD 2008.05.
i found it to be quite similar to RedHat Linux but still many things are different.
though i m loving it.
i gave a command (passwd -d) on the bash shell with the root's role, as i dont
like to be prompted for passwd again and again.
now, i m not able to login to openSolaris, as its saying, password or userId is
not correct.
I believe this may be the section of the passwd manpage you're not noticing:
If the login(1) option PASSREQ=YES is configured,
the account is not able to login. PASSREQ=YES is
the delivered default.
Note that this default seems to have changed recently. I always built my
home system without a password initially, then created one when running
my post-DVD build scripts. This was just for ease on my slow system. On
my latest rebuild, this failed.
