i think something is amiss. using a temporary file instead of /dev/sdC0/fossil,
i followed the example in fossil(4). then on the console i created a user "bad"
main: create junk sys sys d777
main: uname bad bad
then i mounted the fossil and created junk/bad
; touch bad; chgrp -u bad bad; chgrp bad bad
; ls -l
--rw-rw-rw- M 13950 bad bad 0 Nov 6 16:02 bad
then on the fossil console
main: users -d
nuser 5 len 84
then back on plan 9:
; ls -l
--rw-rw-rw- M 13950 (bad) (bad) 0 Nov 6 16:02 bad
i can lather, rince and repeat this process. i have no idea what
could be wrong in your case. regardless, if you turn auth off,
(-A), you will be god and can nuke anything.
