Hello. Quoting from Andrew (Fri Oct 13 17:44:22 1995): > Thanks for your help in the past...everything seems to be working except > for the occaision "crash" where the unix refuses connections telnet > connections and all the users dissappear (where their names should be (in > finger etc) there are numbers...usually 0 or 1001) and ~user paths stop > working. If you have any ideas it would be nice but.... You lost the 2 passwd databases (I hope you didn't lose the sources). As root, run "pwd_mkdb /etc/master.passwd" or use "vipw" and exit with ":wq". This will re-create the needed databases. Bye, -- # $Id: .signature,v 1.12 1995/08/14 12:10:54 piero Exp $ Piero Serini Via Giambologna, 1 <Piero@Free.IT> I 20136 Milano - ITALY
