- Subject: cannot change password using "passwd" command
I cannot change password of local account using
"passwd" command in Cygwin.
$passwd
Enter the new password (minimum of 5, maximum of 8
characters).
Please use a combination of upper and lower case
letters and numbers.
Old password: < i type old password here>
Bad password: Too short.
I am sure that the password is typed correctly. I am
using w2k server.
What's wrong ?
