It sounds like something bad has happened. Can you run the command again as "LC_ALL=C passwd root"? I can't translate the Italian :) Are other commands working OK? Can you try another shadow command like groupadd: `groupadd -g 222 foo'? I'm curious if problem is in libshadow or if passwd is just misconfigured. -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
