hi,
When I try to change a password (from root or any user), I get the following result:
# passwd 12345
New Password:
Re-enter new Password:
Permission denied
#
i used command *#passwd -f root* to Forcefully change the root passwd. now when i try to logon the system wiht root it will prompt me to change the passwd. and when i give the passwd it shows again permission denied message..
because of this now i can’t log on to the system with root user.
i have also a simple user *test* on same system.
plese help me in this regard and reply me shortly..
thnx in advance..
regards,
asif
