Hi guys, I'm new to this list, so I hope I'm not flogging a dead horse here, but after an upgrade from 5.1 Release to 5.2.1 Release (i386) I encountered a weird thing: when being root, and creating users using the pw command as follows:
pw useradd testusr -g testgrp -s /bin/sh No home directory gets created (whereas a home directory was properly created when doing this under 5.1 Release). Then, when I try to fix this afterwards by doing: pw usermod testusr -d /usr/home/testusr I get the message: pw: WARNING: home `/usr/home/testusr' does not exist This, in itself, is already weird, of course. Manually creating the directory /usr/home/testusr and then trying the pw command doesn't work either (neither when the directory is owned by root, nor when it's owned by testusr:testgrp) ?!? More bizarrely so, when adding a user using sysinstall, it all works fine. Go figure...?!? Does anyone have any ideas? Cheers!
