This should still work with 1.X and with the other BSD's. It does use the *BSD shadow password system. You will also have to grab the adduser.conf and userids files out of /etc/*. NOTE: All this command does is: 1. Create the passwd file entry 2. Allow you to enter the password 3. Create user home directory 4. Copy skeleton shell setup files This is has been cut down from my original adduser that is in under FreeBSD 1.1.5.1 /contrib/adduser. Gary gclarkii@phoenix.net gclarkii@FreeBSD.ORG
