http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/gnome-system-
tools?view=revision&revision=4017 has the changes for gnome 2.20, so
this should apply well to Gutsy.
This should be fixed in all previous releases, too, although this will
require some more serious backporting.

Ok I had some time to investigate what I discovered (in comment 68).
Still not sure if it's the cause of this bug but I am now able to
reliably reproduce a serious similar bug:
1. launch users-admin
2. create a test1 user
3. create a test2 user (with admin rights)
4. create a test3 user
5. delete
In reply to comment 67 (Yann Rouillard):
I don't know if I have to file a separate bug for the behaviour I have
described. Maybe some other developer can say that.
After all, the fact is that system-tools-backend is not able to behave

I maybe have found something in system-tools-backend which could explain
this weird bug.
system-tools-backends looks at the line number instead of the group name to see
if a group have been deleted/added/modified.
Just look at the set function in
/usr/share/system-tools-backends-2.0/scripts/User
@Renzo Bagnati: I think your problem is a different one.
Your AD users don't exist in /etc/passwd and unfortunately, the system-
tools-backend only know how to retrieve information from /etc/passwd, so
your AD users are considered invalid.

First, boot to recovery mode or boot from the CD again. That gives
you root access and you can change passwords using passwd. Also, you
can view /etc/group and /etc/passwd to see if your regular signon was

Hi
I just installed Xubuntu 7.04 onto an old-ish laptop (that was previously
running an old release of slackware linux). The initial install wasn't too
painful (aside from problems with the disk partitioner returning failure codes
numerously, and the fact that the GUI network configurator didn'
Is this only a Dapper problem?
I am not having any luck at all reproducing the problem in Gutsy under a
VM. I have done 8 trials of various operations, and all did nothing but
expected.
Here's an easy test method:
mkdir -p ~/trials/orig
cd ~/trials/orig
cp /etc/passwd .
cp /etc/group .
mkdir ..

My machine was a fresh Dapper Drake install. The users in question were
all newly created ones. I created users, then created groups. Then I
started adding users to groups. After I exited the admin tool and saved the
changes I went to configure the printer and could not. I tracked it back to

Likewise, most of the reports did very simple things. I tried to add a new
user. (However, it's also likely that a defunct user of the same name was
in /etc/group or /etc/passwd because once upon a time those had been
copied from another machine.)
But it stands to reason that it doesn't happen
Hmm Well it has been a while since I looked at it but all I did to
create the bug was use the GUI user-admin too to reassign a user to a
group. I noticed after that that directories the users should have had
access to they did not. Further investigation showed that they were not in
the group

Charles,
Thanks for the updates. It's been at least 8 months since I looked at this
but I guess it is still not fixed. I had to drop Ubuntu since this bug
meant it failed (miserably) my company's security criteria.
thanks again,
