[linuxconf] Problems with Linuxconf




>I am running Linux Mandrake 5.3 on 3 of my servers. We have put an upgrade 
>called "tcpro" on our Machines to increase the speed of the machines (they 
>are fed by satellite uplink and downlink)
>
>The problem I am having is 2 of the servers will not allow an adduser 
>through Linuxconf. It does fine up until the point where it wants the 
>password, after the password has been entered, and re-entered to confirm, 
>it says "password was not changed" and then the user was NOT added.
>
>The 2 servers that this happens on, in the log files, it says 
>"!creating user account xxx
>Executing: /usr/sbin/useradd -m -c '' -d /home/xxx -s '/usr/bin/passwd' -G 
>'' xxx
>*return -1"
>
>The *return -1 is NOT on the server that works fine, I was wondering if 
>this may be the problem, and if so how do I correct it, if that isn'y the 
>problem, does anyone know what it could be? Any help is appreciated!
>
>Thanks,
