#3499 Root user cannot handle danish letters in password

[Anonymous]

Hi webmin

I am a danish user runing a Ubuntu 9.04 64bit server and webmin 1.490

I am using webmin for the first time. After installation I tried to login, but the system reported wrong password. In your faq I found a guide to change the password with the command changepass.pl. I tried a new code without danish letters and it worked right away. I tried to change it back and same result - no login.

So I believe you have a bug with the danish letters.

That sounds like a bug. Which Danish letter did you use in the password though?

[Nobody/Anonymous]

The danish letter I had problems with where å and æ. (I did not try the last danish letter ø)

Kind regards

Does this only happen if you change the password from the command line?
