my problem was not fixed by this patch: I created the other users on my box at work some days before with gnome- system-tools after a fresh install of karmic-rc, but am not able to change passwords with the gui. I tried with random password and with typing a password two times by hand.
I had immediately success on the other side when using "sudo passwd <username>" like in old days. I changed passwords and even rebooted without effect. Of course this actions should have effect immediately. After changing password i should be able to login as this other user with the newly set password. the new title of this bug is IMO wrong, as i was able to set contact info of my other users. Only password setting seems to fail (so the old title was wrong too :-) ) -- [users-admin] Modifying settings of an existing user has no effect https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/463353 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
