starting userinfo 2 change finger Info fails with an "unknown Error" after execution. correct password was applied. Maybe has sometinh to do with MD5 PW ???
I have verified this to be true.
I do not think that this has anything to do with MD5 passwords, as I have replicated it without MD5 passwords. I created a debugging version of the userhelper binary which is giving the "Unknown error" and then it started to work; it has continued to work even when I reinstalled the old usermode rpm that had previously not worked. I'm looking for more reports of this behaviour. If you can reproduce it, please comment here and include a description of how your user database is set up: in particular, I'd like to know whether you are using shadow and whether you are using NIS, but any other possibly pertinent information you can think of would also be helpful.
