I tried that but the encrypted string in /etc/shadow is a lot longer than what is in a passwd file in another repo. It look like that in the other file: simon:TsNInUhhgjEVM I remember running a command that added the user to the file, but I don't remember what I did. ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jeffrey C.

Look in the /etc/shadow file and find the username you are working with 3. Copy the users encrypted password from /etc/shadow (this will be all characters between the first and second colon) 4. Go into /opt/cvsroot/CVSROOT and copy the users info into this file (or replace as necessary), in the following format <username>:<encrypted password copied from /etc/shadow>):<username> 5.
