The current package creates a user named `tacacs', but it looks like past versions may have used `tac-plus', can you check your system and tell me which user you have, and what the uid and gid is? > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# getent passwd tacacs > tacacs:x:64005:64005::/home/tacacs:/bin/false > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# getent group tacacs > tacacs:x:64005: > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# > > PS. Why /home? That's a good question; I'm not sure. FWIW, it doesn't actually create the directory. > -- System Information: > Debian Release: lenny/sid > APT prefers unstable > APT policy: (500, 'unstable') > Architecture: i386 (i686) > > Kernel: Linux 2.6.19-spiderwebs (SMP w/2 CPU cores) > Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) > Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- Eric Evans [EMAIL PROTECTED]
