Hello all!
I have several problems with my FC1 server and they may all be related.
Adding users. . .
When using webmin, when you try to add users, you cn put all the users'
information in there but then you click CREATE, it returns with a:
panic: realloc at ./user-lib.pl line 928.
I have tried versions of webmin all the way back to 1.13x and it does the
same thing but the line number is slightly different in each version.
So, since it is crunch time and I am needing *badly* to get users added
and am having 0 success with teh webmin list (error has been posted in
their forum for two weeks now with no responses) I decided to try to use
the Users and Groups thing from the RedHat menu. It asks for the root
password (unless you are logged in as root already) and then disappears,
never to return.
So I went to a terminal console screen and ran redhat-config-users from
the commandline and got this:
[root at leopards archives]# redhat-config-users
/usr/share/redhat-config-users/redhat-config-users: line 4: 3480
Segmentation fault /usr/bin/python2.2
/usr/share/redhat-config-users/redhat-config-users.py
What could be wrong with this? Could this be why webmin won't add users,
either?
I really need tog et this fixed ASAP (I've been fussing with it for weeks
now and need it working BADLY.
The last resort is to go try to learn how to use the commandline adduser
thing but I have never made that work successfully to get users in *nix
and samba at the same time. Plus, with the number of users I have to add,
webmin will work the best. . .
Please respond.
Thank you.
