Subject: Problem in creating /etc/passwd and /etc/group with B18 release
21 Oct 1997 12:47:22 -0700 :
Message-ID: <199710211847.LAA09880.cygnus.gnu-win32@suncpu6.pdxuxbre.lmc.com>
To: gnu-win32 AT cygnus DOT com

I used mkpasswd and mkgroup to create the files /etc/passwd and /etc/group.
However the functionality of mkpasswd does not seem to be quite right since
the passwd file does not have all the users on the domain. It just has a
subset of the users. When I say 'whoami' without my name in the file it
gives me an incorrect username instead of giving me an error. 

Can I get the source for this mkpasswd? 

Thanks,
Anna.
