https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D233478 Bug ID: 233478 Summary: Authentication fails if password > 128 characters Product: Base System Version: 11.2-RELEASE Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: standards Assignee: standards@FreeBSD.org Reporter: asv@inhio.net After upgrading from 11.1 RELEASE to 11.2 RELEASE through freebsd-update I'= ve been locked out from my remote server after the reboot. Further investigation and testing on another FreeBSD 11.2 RELEASE (upgraded through build world instead and perfectly working) confirmed that I was loc= ked out because the previous passwords were larger than 128 characters. Both systems are set "passwd_format=3Dsha512" through login.conf (which I b= elieve is the default value nowadays). This issue is something new, was never there and actually forced me to login and fix it modifying the passwords while in single user mode with something shorter. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
