Later we logged into the Graphical login screen as root, and selected
System Settings-->User Manager.  Then we highlighted a user and selected
Properties.  When the User Properties window displayed,  we rekeyed the
Password and Confirm Password fields and clicked on OK.  However, the
passwords did NOT change.  After several attempts, we finally tried the
old fashioned(?) 'usermod' approach, and it too failed.  Finally, we
deleted the users and readded them with the proper passwords.  What is
up with this????  Are we missing something in the procedure?
