You don't NEED to answer it at all. We understand what you are saying, and we don't agree with you. Further input from you will not persuade us to join you in your anti-microsoft blathering. We want to make freebsd the best tool for as many jobs as possible. FreeBSD is often used as a windows file server, so anything we can do to accomodate that function is worth pursuing. I've already patched rmuser in -Current to handle removal of any user in the password database (albeit, related to another problem report), and I'd appreciate it if Gerhard would test it in his environment to see if it works with password strings with $ signs in them, or whatever else he can throw at it.
