Hello Everyone.
I'm have difficulty in deleting a user account then trying to re-enter it
(V4.0f, C2 security).
I have an account that I attempted to delete using the following steps:
1. edauth -r <username>
2. deleted entry in /etc/passwd
3. rm -r /usr/users/<username>
Using adduser I get the following error (after I edit the auth entry with
u_lock_at_):
You must enter a new password for newuser. (at this time it does
not give me a chance to
Enter a password).
Password not changed: ID mismatch.
Authentication error: see Account Administrator.
Warning, the password for (newuser) was not set.
Finished adding user account for (newuser).
So, the question is. With C2 Security enabled, what part of the puzzle am I
missing here?
I remove the entry from the Auth DB using edauth, I remove the users home
dir (rm -r /path/to/userhome) and I remove the entry in the /etc/passwd
file. What else do I have to edit/delete/remove in order to 'reuse' this
UID/username?
Thanks everyone,
-Will
