Hello all,
I changed the root users home dir and shell in /etc/passwd. Since then, i
can not get the vipw utility to work, it simply says:
vipw: you mangled the temp file, /etc/passwd unchanged
I suspect it is because of vipw "protecting" the root entry. Is there a
workaround for this?? Or anyone know the fix? Thanks...
later!
Ray
