I do this procedure:

passwd
Current Password:
Password change failed. Server message: Password is too short

Password not changed.
passwd: Authentication Token Manipulation Error
passwd: password unchanged


In /var/log/auth.log is:

Mar  5 16:12:56 b125-test-201 passwd[23994]: pam_unix(passwd:chauthtok): 
user "bitj" does not exist in /etc/passwd
Mar  5 16:12:59 b125-test-201 passwd[23994]: pam_unix(passwd:chauthtok):
