I have installed Solaris 10 in my PC and now installing Oracle10, but while adding a user i am getting following error:
I have tried pwconv command, but it is not giving any error. 'wc -l /etc/passwd /etc/shadow' is also giving output of 16 lines in each file. There was one more command that I ran (don't remember now) to check the file system, but no use. Please suggest what can I do.
Regards,
Amit

Good day all.
I'm trying to add a user with useradd and the -p option to assign a project name, but the result is that the user is created with an error message: "UX: useradd: user.root name should be all lower case or numeric."
The command:

I installed Solaris 10 (8/11) and added an account for myself. It lives in
/export/home/{name} but /etc/passwd shows it is
/home/{name} where it seems to be mounted like a filesystem. I tried to
create another account from the command line but it doesn't work the same way.

Linux audits in syslog, any time a user is deleted or added. However, I'm running a Solaris11 VM, and find no such entries. How can I enable auditing for useradd and userdel? Oracle's documentation on managing the auditing service, has been of no assistance. Thanks.
