According to Giao Nguyen: > If you modify passwd.master by chfn, chsh, passwd, etc. that's fine. If > you modify it with vi, don't forget to build /etc/pwd.db with pwd_mkdb. Er... There's no reason to "vi /etc/master.passwd" since you can just as well do "vipw", which will rebuild everything automagically for you once you are done. And do nothing if you didn't change anything. /Mikael
