Hi, daniel
thank you for your bug report.

I have made some tests and configured a phpgroupware with a very long
passwd (45 chars). It worked.

I have checked in the source code and discovered that maybe the password
is checked against a version of the string that should have been treated
with something like addslash in php. 
Perhaps, you put a string that contains character that should have being
translated with addslash. For example a string that contains a \.
 
If this is the matter, we will have to convert the string comming from
debconf by addslash.

Let us know if you think this may explain your problem.
