I've created /etc/security/passwd.adjunct with passwds in it and changed
the passwds in /etc/passwd to ##username and now get the following error
when trying to login:

pwdauth: pseudo-user AUpwdauthd not found in passwd or passwd.adjunct
Login incorrect

here is the line in rc.local for starting passwd.adjunct:

if [ -f /usr/etc/rpc.pwdauthd -a -f /etc/security/passwd.adjunct ]; then
rpc.pwdauthd & echo -n ' pwdauthd'

here is the form of the file passwd.adjunct:

dlr:myencryptedpasswd:::::

here is the form of the etc/passwd file:

dlr:##dlr:1000:100:dlr:/home/dlr:/usr/local/bin/tcsh

Maybe i need to restart rpc.pwdauthd when i change over /etc/passwd to the
##username?

thanks,

dave racette

ps: I can login with ssh but telnetting gives the above error message.
