Some users reported to me that they ended up without a password in /etc/shadow when installing squeeze. The error is something like this:
Apr 11 13:22:08 finish-install: info: Running /usr/lib/finish-install.d/06user-setup Apr 11 13:22:08 user-setup: Shadow passwords are now on. Apr 11 15:22:08 chpasswd[6505]: pam_winbind(chpasswd:chauthtok): valid_user: wbcGetpwnam gave WBC_ERR_WINBIND_NOT_AVAILABLE Apr 11 13:22:08 finish-install: chpasswd: (user root) pam_chauthtok() failed, error: Apr 11 13:22:08 finish-install: System error Apr 11 13:22:08 finish-install: chpasswd: (line 1, user root) password not changed Apr 11 13:22:08 finish-install: warning: /usr/lib/finish-install.d/06user-setup returned error code 1 I suppose this is #573323 which is fixed in unstable but which has not moved to testing yet (9 out of 10 days).
