[Nix-dev] groupmod failing in nixos
Hello, our activation script runs 'groupmod --gid num x' for the groups not maching the gid expected by nixos. In my system, this command fails. # grep dovecot2 /etc/group dovecot2:x:45: # LANG=C groupmod --gid 46 dovecot2 groupmod: Cannot determine your user name. (LANG=C is to have the message in English). Any idea of what fails? Regards, Lluís. ___ nix-dev mailing list nix-dev@lists.science.uu.nl http://lists.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev

But groupmod fails on my system to change it to 46. :) Shouldn't it work and change it to 46? ___ nix-dev mailing list nix-dev@lists.science.uu.nl http://lists.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
