Hello, after some weird disk accident I have only pwd.db and spwd.db from my passwd files left. Passwd and master.passwd are missing. Couln't find them in /lost+found too. The system is running, but I can not add new users, of course (baybe only using pwd_mkdb -u ). Is there any way how to reconstruct master.passwd ? I was searching through the archives and dind't finde the answer. I was also trying to look into pwd_mkdb source, but ... Thanks in advance Leo Mrafko
