I realize this probably isn't a -current issue, but since I don't have any
experience with PAM I don't know for sure if it's just me or not.


My problem is that the passwd command isn't doing anything, at all.  I
have the stock pam setup (/etc/pam.d, /etc/pam.conf deleted after running
mergemaster).  Running adduser will add a user with a password in
master.passwd, but running passwd will not change the password, regardless
if a password exists or is null.

Also, if a user does have a password, with the stock setup not even root
can change it without providing the correct previous password.  This
wasn't intentional was it?
