Ok what am I doing wrong. I made a user
useradd -m user
Then I tried to set a password

Password```
After I exit from root and back to the login screen and try to login it tells me that the password is incorrect

#

Did the command say anything

#

I mean it said that it changed the password

#

The user is there

#

And I went back and passwd user (password) again

#

But still same thing

Talking about it locking said account if I enter the password in wrong too many times?

storm knoll
#

Yes

spare siren
#

I only entered it in once

#

What if I assigned the shell to be alacritty instead of bash and I'm trying to login through bash

#

Would that cause a problem?

storm knoll
#

Your shell is not your terminal

spare siren
#

Because it said you could

#

Oof

#

Ok

#

Noob mistake

#

Well I changed it back and I still have the same problem

I don't think I statically set my keyboard since it was already in the right format

Set my keyboard in vconsole and that fixed it
