>Description:
rmuser is not case sensitive.  It will confirm the user you wish to 
delete, but then it deletes more than one user.
>How-To-Repeat:
adduser JOHN, adduser john, them rmuser john, both users 
are removed.
>Fix:
Linh Pham <lplist@closedsrc.org> reported this in response to my 
post in -questions (200103192332.f2JNWXb68437@ns1.unixathome.org):

In the rmuser script, there is a Search/Replace call that has /io, which
searches in non-case sensitive mode.

Below is a clip of what I have under 4.2-STABLE:

while (<MASTER_PW>) {
	if (not /^\Q$login_name:/io) {
		print NEW_PW;
	} else {
		print STDERR "Dropped entry for $login_name\n" if \
		$debug;

		$skipped = 1;
	}
}

Removing the i would probably resolve the non-case sensitive issue of
rmuser.
