Hi,

I cannot remove the user with 'miller'. pw says it does not exists. However, rmuser says that it does exist, but it cannot delete it (I get a "no such file or directory" message). I also tried to re-add this user, but it also fails. (I have deleted 'miller' from /etc/passwd, but it is no use...) Please see below. How can I remove this user?

Thanks,

  Laszlo
