Having this behavior isn't in it's self a bug. Not /documenting/ the behavior properly in dialogs related to system administration tools /is/ a bug. Additionally when root ==HAS A PASSWORD== it is a valid account to authenticate against; disallowing that is also a bug. -- Unable to authenticate as user 'root' (I have added a password) OR as current user (account has no password due to end user preference) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/454256 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
