[OpenIndiana-discuss] useradd - strange behaviour

[Boris Epstein]

Alexander,

Thanks. Just did:


root at zeus:~# pwck

lp:x:71:8:Line Printer Admin:/usr/spool/lp:
        Login directory not found

uucp:x:5:5:uucp Admin:/usr/lib/uucp:
        Login directory not found

nuucp:x:9:9:uucp Admin:/var/spool/uucppublic:/usr/lib/uucp/uucico
        Login directory not found
        Optional shell file not found
root at zeus:~# grpck
root at zeus:~#

Nothing particularly bad detected, as far as I can tell.

Boris.
