Hi All,

I'm trying to get ssh (along with everyone else I think *GRIN*) working.
However, as a first step I thought that I'd attempt to login, because if
that didn't work ssh has _no chance!_.  I've added my domain to the passwd
file and group...

/bin/mkpasswd -ld micromarketing > /etc/passwd
/bin/mkgroup -ld micromarketing > /etc/group

and then... login

Now, my user name is morrijr so

$ grep morrijr /etc/passwd
morrijr::1324:1141:John
Morrison,S-1-5-21-1491927668-2094530616-1660491571-1324:/home/morrijr:/bin/s
h

$ login
login: morrijr

login: John Morrison

Question: What am I doing wrong?

I've read something about adding the domain to the passwd file (U- I think),
is there a reason that this isn't done automatically?

Help?

Thanks,

John.
