Morning all,
Just a little thing I've spotted in 5.0-R which could cause grief for new
users. Post-perl adduser(8) is broken with what I would term sensible
passwords. i.e. those which contain special shell characters (|/`/$/etc).
The fix is simple:
--- /usr/src/usr.sbin/adduser/adduser.sh.original Tue Jan 21 10:18:54 2003

Could somebody please commit this?
Robin
PS: This seemed so trivial that it didn't deserve a whole PR to itself...
