Now I discovered, if any program like yast ask for the root password, I can enter everything and it works.
You are logged-in as a normal user and now you start a yast module. You get the UI of gnome-su or kdesu (which one?) which ask you for the root pasword. If you enter anything, yast is started. Is this correct, or do you mean something different? Please provide /var/log/messages .
One thing more: If I am logged in as root and entered passwd into terminal (to change root password), I got this: linux-4zng:~ # passwd Changing password for root. passwd: Permission denied
Please attach the following files: * /etc/pam.d/passwd * /etc/pam.d/common-auth * /etc/pam.d/common-account * /etc/pam.d/common-passwd * /etc/pam.d/common-session The common-* files may be symlinks to common-*-pc files. Please tell me, if this is the case on your system. -- 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.
