[Bug 375586] New: Root password limited to 8 characters if Windows Domain is used
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=375586 Summary: Root password limited to 8 characters if Windows Domain is used Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Alpha 3 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: sloncho@gmail.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- Hi, I'm performing a fresh installation of 11.0 Alpha 3 in VMWare virtual machine. After selecting the timezone, it asks to create a user (local). I hit "Change" and changed the authentication method to "Samba(Windows Domain)". This disables the selection fields for Blowfish and other encryption methods. So, on the next screen, it asks for root password, and if password longer than 8 characters is provided, it complains that the password is too long for the current encryption method, and I need to truncate it to 8 characters. As the root user is "local", is shouldn't be affected by what I select for user authentication, and I should be able still to select what encryption method to use for "local" users. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
