I've seen this once or twice. I'm not sure what caused it or how I fixed
it, I think it was a matter of order in the ifconfig operations.
The has doesn't use only the passwd but also the IP parameters and others
things. I think (re)setting the password last helped in my case
(or maybe it needs to be set on the same line as the IP and ethernet
parameters ?)
