Date: Fri, 13 Sep 2002 15:34:10 +0200 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Hi people, I've been attempting to set up ssh, because, er..., it seems to be what everyone else is doing! Got to the "mkpasswd -d" stage, which listed a bunch of people that didn't include me, so I was explicit about the domain: mkpasswd -d MY_DOMAIN >> /etc/passwd And it proceeded to list 22,795 of my colleagues and the time it took was... real 1118m45.573s user 2m4.187s sys 2m23.515s Yep - over 18 hours for the command to finish! Can anyone beat that?
