Serious problem with adduser_3.4
I have the following problem with this version of adduser. Here's what I
get when I try to add a user to my system:
# adduser adams
Adding user adams...
Selecting from 1000 29999
(0,0,1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,9,9,10,10,11,11,13,13,15,20,21,21,22,24,25,26,29,30,30,31,31,32,33,33,34,34,35,35,36,36,37,37,40,42,50,60,100,101,102,102,103,104,105,1000,1000,1001,1001,1002,1002,1003,1003,1004,1004,1005,1005,1006,1006,1007,1007,1008,1008,1009,1009,1010,1010,1011,1011,1012,1012,1013,1013,1014,1014,1015,1015,1016,1016,1017,1017,1018,1018,1019,1020,1020,1021,1021,1022,1022,1023,1023,1024,1024,1025,1025,1026,1026,1027,1027,1028,1028,1029,1029,1030,1030,1031,1031,1032,1032,1033,1033,1034,1034,1035,1035,1036,1036,65534,65534).
Adding new group adams (1037).
groupadd -g 1037 adams
Adding new user adams (1037) with group adams.
useradd -d /home/adams -g adams -s /bin/bash -u 1037 adams
useradd: unknown group adams
adduser: `useradd -d /home/adams -g adams -s /bin/bash -u 1037 adams'
returned error. Aborting.
# tail -2 /etc/group
+:::
adams:x:1037:
As you can see, "adams" is added after the NIS entry and then "useradd"
can't see it. Is this a bug?
