[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.

If you say yes it truncates the password and when you want to login you need your original password, not truncated. The encryption method was available. -- 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.

But there is another problem, when selecting Windows authentication for users, I still can not set the encryption method for local users, like root. -- 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.

So, I'm little bit confused as what y2logs you need, i.e. at which point of time - when selecting windows authentication, when actually I pass after the step of setting it, or after the installation is finished? Please, let me know, and I'll perform a clean install and provide what's necessary.

During install of 11.0 Beta 1: * At Preparation, User Settings - Enter a user name - Type a long password (> 8 chars) - Uncheck the option to use it as the root password - Next - Enter a long root password (> 8 characters) A message box appears saying it's too long do you want to truncate it (as in most of the dups and this bug). Obviously there's nothing new in that but, if you say Yes to truncate the password then no truncation happens. The full > 8 characters version of the root password works after the install completes. -- 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.

It has to be full length password as it was entered. Today I'll do clean install of B1 and I'll have clean yast2 logs to attach. -- 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.
