[Bug 570944] Re: passwd : gives "Authentication token manipulation error"

[Thierry Carrez]

Interesting. Short explanation of the parameters: the pam passwd stack
asks for two passwords, one to authenticate and one as the new password.

try_first_pass makes pam_winbind try to use the authentication password
provided to the previous module (pam_unix). If it fails, it will prompt
for a new authentication password.

use_authtok makes pam_winbind use the new password as set by the
previous module. If there is none, it will prompt for a new password to
use.

Looks like the latter is failing: you don't get prompted for a new
password ever if "use_authtok" is present.

Could you post the output and logs you get when changing winbind
password and using "password [success=1 default=ignore] pam_winbind.so
try_first_pass" ? I'll try to compare it with the output and logs you
posted in Description.
