There are two "adduser" scripts. One is perl, and one was written to use "pw" and provide the same semantics, in a shell script, as part of the "perl purge" that happened recently. One of them pukes on the trailing $, and the other doesn't. It's confusing, unless you caught that we were talking about most recent -current. -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
