| Doc Text: |
Prior to this update, running the passwd command in the single user mode (that is, runlevel 1) failed when SELinux was enabled. To address this issue, the SELinux rules have been updated, so that passwd can now access the console, as well as all terminals (TTYs) and pseudo terminals (PTYs).
