No I didn't run the script manually, however, a quick check of /etc/passwd shows that the account exists and so does the /home/fai directory (and the .ssh sub directory but there's no files in the .ssh directory). The main fai-setup script appears to create it.
In fact I can't find a fai-account script at all. -----Original Message----- From: Jacob Weismann Poulsen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, 30 January 2004 17:12 To: Andrew Monteiro Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: make-fai-nfsroot problems * Andrew Monteiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [2004-01-30 08:00]: > Thanks to Jacob and Keith for pointing out the missing binutils package.
