Ask the sysadmin to update Active Directory, LDAP, NIS, or whatever. I certainly don't expect regular users to know about chfn. For that matter, I don't expect sysadmins to know it either. I would expect regular users to ask a sysadmin, and I would expect the sysadmin to use "sudo vi" most likely. How often does somebody change their name? Basically when they get married... Approximiately 0.5 times in a lifetime. I don't know. I'm putting this one deep, deep into "esoteric" land. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
