Hi Clint and others,
I tried:
# rm spwd* pwd* passwd* ptmp> # pwd_mkdb /etc/master.passwd
then
#passwd username
but I am still getting: (for all users)
pwd_mkdb: corrupted entrypwd_mkdb: at line #24pwd_mkdb: /etc/ptmp:
Inappropriate file type or formatpasswd: /etc/master.passwd: unchanged
I have searched the faqs but have not been able to find a good solution to
this issue. Does anyone have any thoughts?
Does line #24 have a subtle error? Check the format against passwd(5).
BTW, are you the guy that inherited an OpenBSD system without a root
account?
