This bug has been filled here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-system-tools/+bug/134948 "Binary package hint: gnome-system-tools After doing clean install of Ubuntu 7.04 and patching, I create new user. I want to use 4 character password like '1234'. This fails as users-admin demands 6 characters. Setting in /etc/pam.d/common-password IS 'min=4' !"
Part of the "make the s-t-b use PAM directly" story...
According to its developer(s), gnome-system-tools is not under active development anymore. Functionality has been mostly integrated into GNOME Control Center / "[System] Settings". It is unlikely that there will be any further active development. Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping - Please feel free to reopen this bug report in the future if anyone takes the responsibility for active development again.
