After setting up a new ES Ver 3 server, users cannot change their own
passwords using passwd.
either get
BAD PASSWORD: it is based on a dictionary word or
BAD PASSWORD: it is too short
it wont accept or update anything
passwd: Authentication token manipulation error
Tried changing the 'required' to 'optional' in /etc/pam.d/passwd to no
avail
auth optional pam_stack.so service=system-auth
account optional pam_stack.so service=system-auth
password optional pam_stack.so service=system-auth
Any ideas?
Have a look at /etc/pam.d/system-auth, in particular
password requisite /lib/security/$ISA/pam_cracklib.so retry=3
( and /usr/share/doc/pam-0.75/txts/README.pam_cracklib)
You may want to modify/remove this entry, although it _is_ there for a
good reason.
There should be no need to change /etc/pam.d/passwd
