I was able to work around the problem, but that doesn't explain why passwd would fail or how it *could* fail. If I am root, how can it fail before anything is typed? Looking around on the web, I only see references to that message w/r/t a user typing the wrong passwd to change their own password -- amusingly, it was said that becoming root could be used to fix the problem if the user's password didn't work or had been forgotten, since such a problem can't affect root which should never get the error. ??? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
