This feature is used by the Samba-3 port to indicate a successful change in the 'passwd chat' config option. 5-STABLE does not indicate that the password change is successful >How-To-Repeat: Run passwd on 4-STABLE and compare the output to passwd on 5-STABLE >Fix: Apply the following patch: *** 157,164 **** --- 157,165 ---- /* set new password */ pam_err = pam_chauthtok(pamh, 0); pam_check("pam_chauthtok"); end: + if (pam_err == PAM_SUCCESS) fprintf(stderr, "Password Changed\n"); pam_end(pamh, pam_err); exit(pam_err == PAM_SUCCESS ? 0 : 1); } >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
