johan, to isolate this problem, you should do the following:

after resetting the password, is the hash in /etc/shadow changed? If not, paste a strace of the passwd command. If yes, you are totally locked out of the VE for any users (except for vzctl enter) because you are unable to set any passwords, correct?
