Dear group,

is the passwd command supposed to work on NT?
I always get the message:
      passwd: unknown user LEHNFR
although I added the account to my /etc/passwd using
      mkpasswd -d <our domain>|grep LEHNFR >>/etc/passwd
and checked for /etc/group too. Is there anything else I have to do?

TIA, Friedrich
