useradd

[Muhammad Rizwan]

Hello

I am trying to add user with the following command in fedora core 2:

/usr/sbin/useradd -s /bin/false -M -d /home/test12 test12
With this above mentioned command, i am getting the following error:
useradd: error locking group file

While with the same command i was able to add user in RedHat 9.

Any idea?

Thanks
