The core can be found here: http://j.xpert.com/pwd_mkdb/pwd_mkdb.core The input file can be found here: http://j.xpert.com/pwd_mkdb/asd Other bizarness: After the core is created pwd_mkdb leaves two empty temp files: /etc/pwd.db.tmp /etc/spwd.db.tmp The next time you run pwd_mkdb it errors: pwd_mkdb: /etc/pwd.db.tmp: File exists but it removes this file. If you run it again you'll get: pwd_mkdb: /etc/spwd.db.tmp: File exists which you have to remove manually if you pwd_mkdb to start working again. Needless to say, all the operations described here are run as root. >How-To-Repeat: pwd_mkdb asd <corefile created> pwd_mkdb asd <see error message> pwd_mkdb asd <see different error message> >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
