I have recently done a clean install of SL-5.1 (workstation). Everything seemed to be working fine until I tried to add additional users using the command line to invoke the Add-Users GUI. When Add user button was clicked the GUI grayed out and froze. I had to ^C out. A portion of the dialog follows.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] etc]# which system-config-users
/usr/bin/system-config-users
[EMAIL PROTECTED] etc]# system-config-users
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/system-config-users/userWindow.py", line 354, in on_userWin_ok_button_clicked
    groupEnt.set (libuser.GROUPNAME, groupName)
NameError: global name 'groupName' is not defined
[EMAIL PROTECTED] etc]#

The additional user was not added. Does anyone have any suggestions where I should be looking to fix the problem?

Previously I have had SL-4.x and SL-5.0 installed on the system and no problems were encountered.


When I started out, system-config-users hadn't been invented yet and one had to use adduser at the commandline.

I still do. Works well, if one's using /etc/passwd etc. I've not discovered whether it works with ldap (I think it does on OS X, but there are so many commandline tools for fiddling with user accounts on OS X I get confused).
