- Please pardon the newbe question, but I'm having trouble adding
- users (me) to 386bsd-0.1.
-
- If there is a better place to ask newbe type questions, please
- let me know.
-
- I tried the following:
- 1. looking for a 'adduser' etc program/script
-
- 2. makeing an entry in the /etc/passwd file
- makeing am entry in the /etc/master.passwd file
- adding the home directory in /usr
-
- 3. rebooting the machine after 2
-
- when I try to chown the /usr/mark directory, I get something
- similar to "no user match" (I confess, I didn't write it down)
-
- I looked for a /mail directory for other users, but I can't find
- it.
-
- Any ideas?
-
- Also: I started making a map of the file system for my own
- benifit. Does such a thing already exsist? If so where? If not,
- would anyone find it usefull?
-
- BTW - Great OS. I'm having a great time. Thankx Bill & Lynne.
-
- Thankx for your help.
