Hello all, Fedora core 3 (with all updates until Jul/12/2006) has a problem with lenght of password
In most cases this is because the user has selected to not use md5sum in authconfig. THis defaults to DES-HASH which only stores 8 characters. You need to use authconfig and turn on Use MD5sum and then have users recreate their passwords. -- Stephen J Smoogen. CSIRT/Linux System Administrator
