FIXED Re: copy users password from shadow file in another server

[Simon Tneoh Chee-Boon <simon.tneoh@mybiz.net>]

Hello all,
   Sorry it's my mistake.
   I found the problem already, it's due to number of columns in /etc/shadow
created by my script is wrong. So when I copied it into the new server's
/etc/shadow,
it caused error.
   Thanks.

Regards,
Simon.
