question why newrole gives error

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

Running Fedora-18. When executing the newrole command I consistently get the same error message "incorrect password for xyzuser". I have su'd to root. Everything appears valid. Below is a snippet from a terminal session that demonstrates the error message. I receive the same error regardless whether I am in enforcement mode or not. Any suggestions as to the cause?


[root@localhost xyzuser]# newrole -r system_r -t sysadm_t
Password: 
newrole: incorrect password for xyzuser
Error sending audit message.
[root@localhost xyzuser]# semanage user -l
