James, I did a quick search on the forum for "/etc/shadow permission" and this was the only relevant link that came up: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=97880&highlight=%2Fetc%2Fshadow+permission , and it seems to be user error. Can you tell us if this happens for you on a fresh install?
What exactly do you want us to do here? No one else has been able to reproduce the bug, and you haven't been giving us any suggestions as to where your differences are coming from. I'm strongly inclined to chalk it up to user error unless you show us that this happens on a clean install for you. Otherwise, the logical conclusion is that this is happening because of something you installed or some later update. In which case it would be helpful to track down if it came from Ubuntu. Also, please be a little less confrontational. We are not "chastising you" for "daring to file a bug", we are just trying to understand what exactly is going on here. -- wrong owner on /etc/shadow https://launchpad.net/bugs/50587 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
