Dear Michel, Great thank you, this is working now. Will this work after a reboot too? Could you now explain me what was wrong with my SELinux setup? Thank you Regards Samuel Michel van Deventer escribió: On Fri, 2008-02-01 at 17:29 +0100, Samuel Rochas wrote:Dear Michel,Whatś the output of : getenforceEnforcingls -Z /etc/shadow-r-------- root root system_u:object_r:shadow_t /etc/shadow After running those commands, I can run passwd without errors (passwd: all authentication tokens updated successfully), but the password won't be changed.might be an SELinux issue If so, you can do a "restorecon /etc/shadow"Did it, still can't update the password.To completely rule out SELinux.. Do "setenforce 0" try to change password Please make sure that ALL fields are accounted for in the shadow file and there are no line breaks! As a final solution you can try to remove the password of root completely (in runlevel 1), reboot, login as root and change the password again.
