We've just installed our 'test' Panther seat at work and I'm trying to get it up and running with our setup.
With Jaguar, we were using flat files for user management, auto updating the /etc/master.passwd file and running 'pwd_mkdb -p /etc/master.passwd' to keep the user database up to date.
However, this seems to be completely broken in Panther. I'm seeing on a completely clean installation the following...
>sudo pwd_mkdb -p /etc/master.passwd
pwd_mkdb: corrupted entry
pwd_mkdb: at line #1
pwd_mkdb: /etc/master.passwd: Inappropriate file type or format
Note: This is with the installed master.passwd - not an edited one. It looks like the pwd_mkdb error checker is rejecting the comment on the first line.
Is this happening for everyone else? Is there a workaround?
Cheers.
