Hi Gurus ,

We have an AS 4100 running 4.0D ..
when I try to remove a login using userdel , the system replies with the error
message

alokb_at_pushpak.nse.co.in /users> userdel -r ronyj
userdel: Specified user not found.

the above command returns exit code 6 , which says

6 The login account to be removed does not exist.

finger and id both show that it is indeed a valid user.

I have not tried 'vipw' as yet since I want it to be the last resort.

Has anybody faced any similar problem?

TIA for all suggestions/solutions and I will summarise.

Cheers
Alok
