After you did so, where does the passwort *not* work? In Dovecot?
I never got as far as checking in dovecot. It did not work from the command line.
if I try to change the password in the user's account (after su <user>) t requires the old password. even after sudo passwd?
Right.
When I try to change the password with sudo, the timestamp on /etc/passwd gets updated but there is nothing logged to anything in /var/log/
Hmm, does the entry in /etc/passwd change, too?
There is no obvious change in the passwd file. I haven't tried to look in spwf.db, but its time stamp also changes.
