Need help with user creation
Hello guys, i have a problem where i cant create a user and here some problem that i encounter. 1. /etc/passwd seems locked. 2. getting this error UX: useradd: ERROR: Cannot update system files - login cannot be created. Code:
# useradd -u 47367 -g 1084 -c "user123" -d /local/home/user123 -s /bin/ksh -m user123 UX: useradd: ERROR: Cannot update system files - login cannot be created. Code:
# ls -ld passwd ; ls -ld shadow -rw-r--r-- 1 root sys 21192 Feb 25 05:21 passwd -r-------- 1 root sys 11151 Mar 9 23:23 shadow # When i run pwck, i encounter this. Code:
# pwck

Logname too long/shortbut as per based on no1 problem, i cannot edit /etc/passwd. Looks like / is OK. Code:
Filesystem kbytes used avail capacity Mounted on /dev/md/dsk/d1 6197861 2263849 3872034 37% / the needed files for useradd also available. Code:
# for i in datemsk passwd shadow group skel user_attr; > do > file /etc/$i > done /etc/datemsk: ascii text /etc/passwd: ascii text /etc/shadow: ascii text /etc/group: ascii text /etc/skel: directory /etc/user_attr: ascii text Looking forward any suggestion from you guys. |

You should be root to do this. Use the useradd like this and see Code:
useradd -u 47367 -g 18 -d /local/home/user123 -m -s /bin/ksh -c "user123" user123 /local/home dire should be present, there should be no conflicting uid 47367 in the /etc/passwd file.you can grep to check. group 18 should be a valid group too. Whats your OS version, showrev ? SEEMS like this file /etc/user_attr is missing or been deleted. Restore it and try |
