Hi everybody,
Here is my (weird) problem ...
I opened /etc/spwd.db with ee and exited (which was actually a very bad idea, even if I did not modified anything). At this time, everything was still ok.
Then, a few minutes later, I tried to su ... Impossible : I get some weird error message telling me "su: who are you ?"
Then I tried to log directly from the login shell on tty0 with my account... unknown user.
I add a look at /etc/passwd : everything was correct.
And when I tried to recreate my account : "user already exists"
Then I reboot (the second very bad idea in the same day), and user "gdm" didn't exist anymore.
Exactly as if I forgot to make mergemaster after upgrading, but with only one difference : I actually didn't made a upgrade.
So now the situation is : I can only access with root account.
Does someone know when I did a mistake ? and does someone knows how to fix it ? Should I delete account in /etc/passwd and create them again ? I had this idea, but I didn't want to make another stupid thing today :)
Thanks a lot
