I cannot reproduce this. Are you using NIS or some other form of authentication besides /etc/passwd? A non-root user cannot set a null password with the passwd command; perhaps the old password is still in force for you? OK, 3029 does look like the same report... The bug really does exist. I'm not sure why I couldn't recreate it on my machine, but plenty of people have reported it. In any case, it is clearly a duplicate of 3029. Thanks for your patience... *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 3029 *** |
