changing the root password



Hello, there.

Something strange is happening when I try to change the system's root password.
I tried with both commands, chpasswd and passwd without success.

The system is keeping something like a "history of passwords"...
I can su to root using the current password, but I also can su to root using the old password!!!

What is wrong? What am I missing?


Thanks in advance,
Arlequín
