Replying to [comment:18 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: > I've seen that 'unknown GID 1000' error myself and it screams of something broken. At first glance/guess, it seems like something leftover from the tests for chapter 6 Coreutils. Recall that we set up a dummy user there with uid of 1000 and run tests as that user. Could shadow be picking that up somehow? As already discussed, I've got some mails #1032 (New users and groups), it's a shadow problem. From tarball of shadow-4.0.17; subdir etc; file useradd: #useradd defaults file GROUP=1000 HOME=/home/users INACTIVE=-1 EXPIRE= SHELL=/bin/bash SKEL=/etc/skel CREATE_MAIL_SPOOL=yes For Shadow-4.0.18.1 it's the same; I tried removing users:x:100: from groups and the problem re-appeared; I've also modified /etc/default/useradd in this way: # useradd defaults file GROUP=100 HOME=/home INACTIVE=-1 EXPIRE= SHELL= SKEL=/etc/skel I think the group users should be added to the /etc/group in Chapter 6.6 Creating Essential Files and Symlinks. -- Ticket URL: <http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/ticket/1032#comment:19> LFS Trac <http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/> Linux From Scratch: Your Distro, Your Rules. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-book FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
