How can I use a db to add accounts to my system?
I add to /etc/nsswitch.conf db in passwd field. Then I put a passwd file
processed by makedb in /var/db/passwd.db. strace tell that (for example)
finger load the db file, but then seems to not take care of it. Maybe the
source (ascii) must be coded in a format different to the plain password
one?
Thanks.
