Hi.

I´m running DU 4.0d - ALPHA1000 and have the following problem. When
I try to create a new user vía dxaccounts or adduser comand I
received the followin message

"The password and group files are currently locked by another user.
Please try again later. Error, exiting useradd /usr/sbin/adduser.
Check /etc/passwd."

And of course I can not create any user. I have checked the users
logged into the system and nobody has been using the file. I have
rebooted the system but nothing happend the error is still there.

Any help?

TIA
