I have done it. Now user/group names are considered acceptable only if they match ^[^-:\n][^:\n]*$ This is done to preserve /etc/{passwd|shadow|group|gshadow} integrity and not confuse shadow tools with user/group names looking like option names. This is all sanity checks that we intend to perform. Everything else should be done by higher level (e.g. adduser). -- WBR, xrgtn -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
