Screen Lock rejects password

[Peter Cockriell]

Thanks for the suggestions, all!  I think Bryann's hit the nail on the head
as I didnt change the password syncing option he pointed out.  Regretfully..
uncommenting that option and changing the password while in the root
maintenance shell hasnt fixed the issue.  When I try to login it's actually
giving me an "Authentication failed" message after I submit my username.  So
I think my next stop will be the pam.d/common-auth file.  I've got so little
configured at this point it'd probably be faster to scrub the whole thing
and reinstall, but I wouldnt learn nearly as much that way.

Thanks again for all your responses.  I'll let you know how it goes.

Cheers,

Pete.
