You were very close to the solution, and probably led us to the last step! In the current development versions of the system, though, the encrypted passwords go into the "shadow" file. Thank you for leading us to the solution! Merci, beaucoup! Art On Sun, Jan 24, 1999 at 11:40:26AM +0100

Brandon, that's it! I had noticed the same lack of the _x_ in the /etc/passwd file. After putting one in and rebooting, voila! It's fixed. Thank you. And BTW, /etc/shadow was all there. As for the missing _x_, I have no idea where it went, and I did not remove it manually. Wow! W
