Jumping on the bandwagon since this bug appears stuck. I can reproduce this
problem at will on four separate systems, so I can hopefully provide more
information and someone can hopefully provide me steps for a fix (aside from
finding a working pam.d).
My installation (salient details):
- non-virtual installation, Dell R410 server
- automatic configuration turned *off*
- admin account created, same root password *off*, receive system e-mails *on*,
automatic login *off*
- was prompted for separate root password, it is different
- only added development packages with install (c/c++, kernel, java, perl,
python)
Install completed without errors. I thought it my be related to online
updates, but the problem appears even if I skip the networking/updates.
Exact behaviour of the problem:
- for either root or admin account, logins through console, display manager or
ssh succeeds with *any* password. Starting YaST (where it asks for a password)
also succeeds
- attempting to change either password with the 'passwd' command fails with
'Permission denied'
