Afternoon folks,
I've updated my -current box doing a reinstall to on a larger disk.
I'm encountering a problem trying to add nis users to my password
file. Everytime I try to add and entry of the form:
+userid:*:0:0:::
I get the following error:
beastie:root# vipw
pwd_mkdb: corrupted entry
pwd_mkdb: at line #17
pwd_mkdb: /etc/ptmp: Inappropriate file type or format
re-edit the password file? [y]:
Has something changed, or have I overlooked something. (probably the latter
I know) Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks-in-advance.
