Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-system-tools

Ubuntu 9.10

After entering the password for the user I clicked on the close button. Then opened up the user properties dialog again and the password text entry is empty. I tried to login with the password and it doesn't work. I tried to generate a random password, but that password isn't save either. When I came back to the dialog, the password field is empty.
