Yup, that took care of that problem. Thanks so much for that...
Other dumb questions:
what should permissions be for passwd and group? Currently I have them at
rw-rw-r-- with owner and group as root. But now I notice that a user cannot
change their own passwd (write permissions to the files I suspect). This
happens whether I use shadow or not
Also, it is not possible to su to root if logged on as another user
(permissions I guess again)
