Hello, all. new Linux user here looking for help with a peculiar user account issue...
I have an account that I was logged into a server with, walked away from the server, and the account continuously fails authentication when attempting to log back in. I am the only person that accesses the server, which has been operational for almost a month now with zero issues.
- grep 'username' /etc/shadow shows that nothing is amiss
- passwd -S 'username' checks out fine
- passwd -u 'username' shows "Success"
Any ideas as to what the issue may be? Thanks!!!
