    What exactly is the problem?

    You can change user passwords like this:
    Code:
    passwd username

    Sorry... I meant password >= 4 character for all new user ..
    Fedora cannot allow for user with user with pass < 6 char

    ex : username : tony, pass = tony -- fedora /linux does not allow this ..

    thx

    Have you tried the passwd command?
    If this still doesn't work, what's the exact error message? Maybe a look at the passwd manpage helps then:
    Code:
    man passwd
