That seems to have fixed it. I changed that entry in /etc/pam.d/common-
password like this:
#password [success=1 default=ignore] pam_unix.so obscure sha512
passwordrequiredpam_unix.so obscure sha512
And now it throws out a better error message for both
I haven't made any changes after installing the Alpha6 besides running
the Update Manager and installing Samba. Here's the contents of common-
password:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/$ cat /etc/pam.d/common-password
#
# /etc/pam.d/common-password - password-related modules common to all services
#
# This f
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/$ ls -l /etc/pam.d/

Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: passwd
As root, if you attempt to change the password, and the passwords do not
match you get "passwords do not match" and "password updated
successfully". It should only report "passwords do not match". It
shouldn't say "password updated sucessfully".
