Re: [arch-general] Problems with shadow service

Good Morning, thank You for Your reply. 1. I don't edit /etc/passwd nor /etc/group manually. 2. As I've already pointed out, it's the incomplete ceph-libs user "ceph", which misses its home directory "/run/ceph". It seems, some install script didn't work correctly (e.g. I'd never create a home directory under "/run" manually). Probably I should create the folder to fix the problem. Which owner and access rights are needed? Kind regards Peter Am 13.12.18 um 07:16 schrieb Ralf Mardorf via arch-general:

PS: When editing password or group files you should use vipw and vigr and FWIW to edit the sudoers file it's common to use visudo. The EDITOR variable allows to replace vi by an editor of your choice.
