Have the passwords been setup to expire? It will ask the user to change their password. Forcing them to do so.

One was upgraded from 7.2 and one was installed from scratch. In both cases, non-root users are prompted for their old password. When it is provided, rather than moving to the screen that prompts the uers to enter his/her new password, a dialog box saying "Error: Unknown error" is displayed and the following error is inserted in /var/log/messages: passwd(pam_unix)[2943]: password - (old) token not obtained Any pointers would be appreciated. -- Janyne Kizer Systems Programmer Administrator NC State University, College of Agriculture & Life Sciences Extension Information Technology -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
