Re: [cobalt-users] RaQ3i password file LOCKED? <<NO HACKED

 Today, my RaQ3i started choking on password changes.  Attempts to change a 
password from the web control panel are rebuffed with a "password file is 
locked" error message. Changes from the shell fail the same way.
  This also has the side effect of preventing users from fetching their mail.
  When I inspected /etc/shadow, I found its permissions set to 400.  The root 
user needs read/write access in order to maintain the password list, unless 
everything I've learned about UNIX is wrong.  However, chmod fails with the 
error, "operation not permitted."  Unless there's a solution to this, I'm 
probably going to have to do something nasty like clear the file's inode and 
try replacing the file with a copy.
