It should work fine to run "passwd prema" as root, or to log into the user account directly (without su) and run passwd there. Can you confirm that this is the case? http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=39995 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
