Dear Michel, <br>
<br>
Great thank you, this is working now. Will this work after a reboot too?<br>
<br>
Could you now explain me what was wrong with my SELinux setup?<br>
<br>
Thank you<br>
Regards<br>
Samuel<br>

After running those commands, I can run passwd without errors (passwd:
all authentication tokens updated successfully), but the password won't
be changed.

If so, you can do a "restorecon /etc/shadow"

<pre wrap=""><!---->To completely rule out SELinux..
Do "setenforce 0"
try to change password
Please make sure that ALL fields are accounted for in the shadow file
and there are no line breaks!
As a final solution you can try to remove the password of root
completely (in runlevel 1), reboot, login as root and change the
password again.
