Since you have been given all the warnings but no help. I was able to do this as root: [root@bretsony root]# adduser testdude [root@bretsony root]# passwd testdude Changing password for user testdude. New password: # I entered "a" (no quotes) BAD PASSWORD: it's WAY too short Retype new password: # I entered "a" againg (no quotes) passwd: all authentication tokens updated successfully. I was then able to log in as testdude from a vt with the single char password a This is on a RHL 7.3 machine.
