Remick" Subject: Passwords don't work after 2.2.7 -> 2.2.8 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I had a clean 2.2.7-RELEASE that I had installed to play with but not done anything with since installing. I performed an upgrade to 2.2.8 but once I had done that, I could not log in with either root or my username. I went into single-user and checked /etc/master.passwd and it seemed intact. I just used passwd while in single-user to fix the passwords but this has me nervous, because I have an important 2.2.2-RELEASE that I want to upgrade and I can't be doing this for all THOSE users. Any ideas as to what might have happened? Please cc: any responses to my email... thanks! ----------------------- Scott I.
