Subject:	cannot change password using "passwd" command

MIME-Version:	1.0

I cannot change password of local account using
"passwd" command in Cygwin.

$passwd
Enter the new password (minimum of 5, maximum of 8
characters).
Please use a combination of upper and lower case
letters and numbers.
Old password: < i type old password here>
Bad password: Too short.

I am sure that the password is typed correctly. I am
using w2k server.

What's wrong ?
