Seems like a coding error -- 'groupName' is not defined variable in userWindow.py. May be fixed by this patch: --- system-config-users-1.2.51/src/userWindow.py.orig 2008-04-01 17:59:41.000000000 +0400 +++ system-config-users-1.2.51/src/userWindow.py 2008-04-01 18:02:10.000000000 +0400 @@ -351,7 +351,7 @@ #No group currently exists with this name, so we can create one groupEnt = self.parent.ADMIN.initGroup(userName) # workaround bug with purely numerical names in ADMIN.initGroup () - groupEnt.set (libuser.GROUPNAME, groupName) + groupEnt.set (libuser.GROUPNAME, userName) groupEnt.set (libuser.GIDNUMBER, gidNumber) cn = groupEnt.get(libuser.GROUPNAME)[0]

Ahh, my bad -- this bug has been reported already and fixed in system-config-users-1.2.51-4.el5. Sorry for the confusion. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 427504 ***
