Following remarks made on the list this patch - allows to specify several domains at once with -d I just don't understand this one. Can someone be logged into multiple domains at once? - only prints SYSTEM and specials when the -l switch is given Isn't this a rather abrupt change from how these utilities have been working? Also, please do a patch for utils.sgml explaining the significance of the new functionality. __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Tax Center - File online, calculators, forms, and more http://tax.yahoo.com

Can someone be logged into multiple domains at once? You don't need to be logged in if the domains have a trust relationship (AFAIK). - only prints SYSTEM and specials when the -l switch is given Isn't this a rather abrupt change from how these utilities have been working? Nobody should ever populate /etc/passwd with -d without having a -l (either concurrent or in a separate call), so SYSTEM will be there. The current program causes duplicate entries because SYSTEM (and others) are added in each call. People have reported writing scripts to remove duplicates, so I am just trying to be nice and avoid having them. Also, please do a patch for utils.sgml explaining the significance of the new functionality. Sure. Pierre
