I have a server running fedora that denies access to me as user "bobg." I can ssh as root and have re-entered the "passwd" for "bobg" and it reported "passwd: all authentication tokens updated successfully."
I also added an= new user and had the same result.
Am I being prevented from actually changing the password via ssh perhaps? If so it's strange that it reports tokens updated successfully. There's no display or keyboard attached,
I can still access view the contents with Samba and the samba password but need user access for me. I suppose root access would wok but I have spent all morning at this and don't know what else to do to fix the user access problem.
Suggestions appreciated.
