     hello,
     
     I need some help, the password file locked...
     What happen was, I installed wu-ftpd[beta-16] version, and I then
     terned on C2 security to an ENHANCED mode. Then, the ftp users
     couldn't login. So, I then terned off C2 to BASE mode. Now, when I
     want to add a new account I get the error as below...
     What should I do to unlock it?
     
     
     ~
     ~
     Enter a login shell for (bairosc) [/bin/sh]: /bin/false
     
     Adding new user...
     
     The password and group files are currently locked by another user.
     Please try again later.
     Error, exiting useradd /usr/sbin/adduser. Check /etc/passwd.
     
     
     
     Thanks,
     /PC
