I'd use vi, which should be available on every linux/unix system. It's a pain to use if you haven't used it before! However, it's reliably present, so it's worth learning.
You'll need to type: vi /etc/shadow Use the arrow keys to navigate to the line you want to change, then type: i (this puts the editor into "insert" mode) (do your typing) [esc] (this puts the editor back into "command" mode) :x (this saves the file and exits) -- bukharin ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bukharin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10859 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=35407 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
