This is strange. On 10.6.2, I get the "sudo: unknown uid: 502" error with Fink's screen (both bash or tcsh as login shell). Apple's screen works correctly with both login shells. To see the error, you have to start screen remotely, then quit it (C-a C-d), log out, then ssh in again and reconnect to the screen. Then sudo or chsh etc will give the error. -- Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Throughout its 18-year history, RSA Conference consistently attracts the world's best and brightest in the field, creating opportunities for Conference attendees to learn about information security's most important issues through interactions with peers, luminaries and emerging and established companies. http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsaconf-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Fink-devel mailing list Fink-devel@lists.sourceforge.net http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.devel Subscription management: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-devel
