Dear Yashpal, Thank you very much .
Many Thanks, Gopal. ----- Original Message ---- From: Yashpal Nagar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, February 21, 2007 5:54:05 PM Subject: Re: [linuxtechbiz] Adding User with a (.) in beetween Hi Gopal, Well thats tricky, you can no longer create user ids with [.] in between. i will advice the following create the users first like adduser yashpalnagar i.e without the dot in between (yashpalnagar) . set the password, and then change the /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow to have user name like yashpal.nagar you need to change /etc/group as well to have group ids like yashpal.nagar Cheers!
