Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: likewise-open
After installing likewise-open on 8.10 I am unable to change any local
passwords.
The latest updates have just been applied - some updates to libpam were
included but did not fix the problem.
This appears only to be the case with users with empty passwords.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ passwd
Changing password for jakob.
(current) UNIX password:
^C
passwd: Authentication token manipulation error
passwd: password unchanged
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo su -
[sudo] password for jakob:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# passwd
passwd: password updated successfully
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~#
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# adduser testuser
Adding user `testuser' ...
[output cut]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~#
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~#
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~#
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# passwd testuser
passwd: password updated successfully
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~#
The passwd commands simply prints out that "password updated
successfully" message then exits.
