To try reproduce this bug, follow next steps: 1. run users-admin utility; 2. press "Unlock" button and type your password; 3. press "Add User" button; 4. type in username's field "example" and in password's field "verylongpassword" 5. select in Profile's field "Administrator" 6. in advanced settings select in Main group's field "users" 7. press OK button and log out 8. at gdm screen type "example" as login and "verylong" as password 9. after that authorization should be successful
BTW, adding user via adduser utility (from terminal) requests full input of password. Some notice - looks like users-admin utility adding hash for only first 8 chars of password in /etc/shadow. So, to fix this issue I've replaced hash for my user account in /etc/shadow - I've copied this hash from hardy's /etc/shadow - there is everything ok. Also, I've found out, that file /etc/pam.d/common-password can contains "max=N" string, where N - number of significant chars of password; but in intrepid, as in hardy, there is no such string. Please, someone, just try to reproduce this and add some feedback here; I just would like to know does anybody else have this issue. -- In "Intrepid" beta for correct password enough only 8 correct chars https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/287134 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
