aha! when you create an account using "useradd", by default, they're locked and you can't log in to them, which leaves you with two choices: 1) # passwd <username> to give them a password 2) # passwd -d <useranme> to remove the lock, giving you (dangerously insecure) accounts with no passwords. rday Robert P.
