Using v1.0.4, and I suspect it has been present way before 0.92 :(

He is the first downlink who can not set up his system to prevent it (or does
not know how to) so making sure mbse deals with it is the next best solution.

If you have the time? can you take a look at the way mbse deals with setting 
up
or amending a users password (both new and existing)?

On my system, since changing from Mandriva 2011 (and previous versions) to
Mageia v4 (and v3) when a new user telnet's in s/he can only get as far as
entering a password then it fails by saying that the file (shadow) is busy.

I suspect that the procedure is out of date for modern Linux kernels and
password procedures etc.  This stops my system from accepting any new users or
allowing an existing one to modify their password, not that I would assume 
that
my system would be swamped with new users :)

It does get as far as setting up new users home directory, Linux user account
then fails to continue with any further processing in the matter including
setting up the account in mbse itself.

I did take a look at the code and did a dirty change by creating a dummy 
passwd
of 12345 but did not make much of an improvement however I do not recall
continue to play with just the Linux account setup to include the password but
that does not fix the problem if you cannot change it at any point later.
So a silly test really.
