Ubuntu 8.10 ( updated from 8.04 )
Remote Desktop ( enabled from admin meny )

My media pc is using outlogin in gnome, so I dont need a mouse or keyboard in 
it.
And I enabled the Remote Desktop from the Admin meny.

I changed my userpassword from a terminal using the passwd command(this
was done over ssh).

when I then login to remote desktop using a VNC client from windows/Linux it 
dont accept my new password. 
when I try the old password I had before changing it it works.

The password is change in login and anywhere else I use it.

so in short words: Remote Desktop does not notice password change done
with passwd in over ssh.
