groupdel 'command' don't remove group id
Hi peoples! Operating System: OpenBSD 5.8 amd64. I removed a group with 'groupdel' command, When I run the 'groups' command the result is: 'group: can't find group 'testx' ...but when the I run 'id' command or look for the user that was associated with it, the group exist: id testx = uid=1001(testx) gid=1001 groups=1001, 1000(laboratory) # groups testx [user in this case associated with other group]: 1001 laboratory The same scenario, with OpenBSD 5.7 amd64 with 'groups' command, gid non appears: # groups testx laboratory but for the rest is the same, although the group is removed his gid exist. Why this happens? Can I remove gid? Thanks for Your replies.

Hi guys! In Enghlish_US way, you have no certainties. # symbol, I've always named 'hash', but from recent research I found which is also named: number, pound, octothorpe, octothorp, octothorn... which is the exact name for it? (In computer way naturally...) Thanks for reply.
GROUP CHANGED
Hi guys! I copied my files from Debian [ext4] to my new server OpenBSD [5.7 amd64], and I found that all files of 'ROOT' group were imported [in OpenBSD] in the 'Wheel' group. Why is this? [Owner is the same, there is no change.] Thank fro reply.
GROUP CHANGED
Thank You Gilles for Your reply. Only the group is changed. But why the owner is remained the same [root]? On OpenBSD, I can not get root:root ? Thanks.

INVALID ROOT NODE
Hi guys, I have a CRYPTO - RAID 1 softraid device /dev/sd4a [3TB OpenBSD 5.6/amd64] on which I have about 1,400,000 files and I've never had problems reading or writing. If, however, launch the tree command, eg. tree c *, returns me: tree: invalid root node: name_of_file. I tried to run a fsck and this is the result # fsck /dev/sd4a ** /dev/rsd4a (NO WRITE) ** Last Mounted on /RAID1 ** Phase 1 - Check Blocks and Sizes ** Phase 2 - Check Pathnames ** Phase 3 - Check Connectivity ** Phase 4 - Check Reference Counts ** Phase 5 - Check Cyl groups 1367897 files, 219769546 used, 143692 free (48040 frags, 17948169 blocks, 0.0% fragmentation) tree: invalid root node: name_of_file # The file listed is ok! What does this message mean? This is only a warnign o It's a problem of my raid or my hard drives? Thanks Max Power.

DAYS OF THE MONTH
Hi, o.s.: OpenBSD 5.3/amd64 If I create a directory with the command: mkdir $(date +'%d') why this is the result: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 08, 09, 10, etc. Why the '0' [zero] appears only ahead the digit 8 and 9..? Thanks.
Re: days of the month
You must have done something wrong: I have not done anything. The system is the default installation. You'd better put double quotes around your command substitutions rather than simple quotes around fixed, non-special strings: $(date '+%d') Ok, but why the command: mkdir $(date +'%d') after the digit 7 works fine? If I insert the date manually then it works fine - example: # date 20130707 but no by default. Why? thanks Max Power open...@cpnetserver.net writes: Hi, Hi.

Re: days of the month
Forgive my fault and my English! What I want to know is why [technically] the scipt: mkdir $(date +'%d'), whith the default system date, with no manual insertion, return this sequence of digits: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 08, 09, 10, etc. Why the '0' [zero] appears only after the digit 7? I hope I explained myself. Thanks for the explanation and for your patience, Max Power.
