I got a mail from Grant, who found this thread by searching the web. He had the same problem, and thinks he found the reason for the issue. As for his request, I forward his mail to this list. regards, Florian Hi. I saw your email on the Debian list. I just had the *exact* same issue -- log messages and all -- on two clean installs from freshly downloaded netinst iso files. I'm not on the debian list myself, but thought I might ask you to pass along what I found to fix the issue, and the root cause -- since it obviously hasn't been addressed in the "Squeeze" testing nightlies yet. Am I the only one in the world installing shell-only debian boxes in 2010? :) Thanks in advance for the assistance in passing this along. Cheers, -Grant Issue ---- Log messages: > > Mar 22 13:24:48 fp passwd[2001]: pam_winbind(passwd:chauthtok): valid_user: > > wbcGetpwnam gave WBC_ERR_DOMAIN_NOT_FOUND Cause: winbind. The winbind dpkg is configured when you select yes for DHCP integration with WINS servers during install. That dpkg-config adds the pam_winbind module to /etc/pam.d/common-password. On clean install, this can even cause passwd not to be able to set the root pass.. locking you out of your finished debian install on first boot. Booting in single user to change the password doesn't help, passwd fails on execution and writes this line on stderr. passwd: System Error Solution: Boot single user. Comment out the line in /etc/pam.d/common-password which loads pam_winbind.so. Run passwd again to set your root password, or to set the password of any user. Reboot, shell logins and the passwd command will work again. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
