Hi,
I running Tru64 5.1, enhanced security on an ES40. Each semester I
create about 250 accounts for students taking computer science courses.
I decided to automate the process instead of creating each account by
hand. Everything works great except the following nuisance. When I
create a user by hand using dxaccounts the name of course goes into the
name field. It looks like this:
Full Name : Darryl Cook
If i do a finger on this account it shows
In Real Life: Darryl Cook
***********
Now if I create the same account using useradd it looks the same in
dxaccounts with
Full Name: Darryl Cook
but when I do a finger on the account I get:
In Real Life: Darryl
Office: Cook
**************
what could be causing finger to put everything up to the first space in
the name field and the rest in the Office field? I have tried putting
the name in quotes when I use useradd but it doesnt change
anything........any ideas?
thanks,
darryl cook
