Yep, that did the trick (the mkpasswd -d -u solution)
Thanks a bunch... I am still wondering why this didn't 'go away' after a complete uninstall, and consequent reinstall? Brian
Vince says:
sounds like something funny in /etc/passwd try regenerating it with
mv /etc/passwd /etc/passwd.old
mkpasswd -l >/etc/passwd
and if you are in a domain mkpasswd -d -u "your username" >> /etc/passwd
