found out that they can't change their passwords. It seems that this
happened after upgrading to the latest version of webmin. The users got this
message after they tried to change password :

I have mysql service installed in virtualmin . It seems that for changing
password both system and mysql password will change.

this problem happened ?! 

Hi,
This can happen if your system doesn't support for crypt() system call,
which is the case for some Slackware releases. The work-around supported by
Webmin 1.240 is to install the Crypt::UnixCrypt Perl module .. older
releases would actually just silently ignore the problem!
