Hi, I am using puppet (version 0.25.5-1.e15 for redhat) for password management for non-system users. This morning, users on some of my puppet clients had their encrypted password strings in /etc/shadow replaced with the following string:
YAML::syck::BadAlias That has effectively broken the users' ability to login to those servers. Puppet will not overwrite that string with the correct encrypted string, and I can't even change the password manually using 'passwd', because I get an 'Authentication token manipulation error'. The only way I can fix this is by manually editing /etc/shadow, replaced that YAML string with something valid (I've been using an '*'), and then changing the password manually or letting puppet overwrite it with the correct password. What could have caused this? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group. To post to this group, send email to puppet-us...@googlegroups.com.
