I added several users in 6.0 before upgrading to 6.1. Then I proceeded to add some more users (using linuxconf-1.16r3.2-2) when I noticed that the newly added users don't have a default group assigned. In 6.0, if I added a user 'wchan'. That account would have group 'wchan' as well. /etc/group has 2 lines which for the newly added users (6.1 with no groups)... :*:508: :*:509: I used linuxconf to modify the 2 users, I added groups for them (same as their userid). Now my /etc/group looks like... :*:508: :*:509: macarta:*:510: xuem:*:511: Is this a bug? Thanks....great job on 6.1. The /upgrade install was slick. Wayland Chan
it is a bug, since it breaks /etc/csh.login, line: [ `id -gn` = `id -un` -a `id -u` -gt 14] fails, and then the /etc/profile.d stuff doesn't get executed if login shell is tcsh
This was fixed in 1.16r7
Our next errata release of linuxconf (after we finish testing) should fix this. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 6089 ***
