passwd then looks like this (starting with an empty file:

I have removed these lines.  Exiting the bash shell and re-entering it,
I encounter the same error.

When I included the domain name as suggested above, I end up with an
empty passwd file.  Output is:

$ mkpasswd -l -u kallender -d MEDIACOMCORP.COM > /etc/passwd
mkpasswd (257): [2221] The user name could not be found.
$ mkpasswd -l -u kallender -d MEDIACOMCORP > /etc/passwd
mkpasswd (257): [2221] The user name could not be found.
$ cat /etc/passwd

As I said, it _might_ be a clue.  I'm really not sure - interaction
between Windows and UNIX is not my realm of expertise (is it anyone's?).
 I do get that message every time I run ssh though - at least the Create
part.  And it is not able to connect to a remote host, regardless of
flags passed to ssh on the CLI.

The attached text file contains that output.  It appears to show up the
first time after the profile.d scripts are called.

The ownership on the various files is starting to look better than it
did, but something's still amiss, judging by the errors in the attached
file.

I appreciate the assistance in debugging this problem.
