I believe there's a small bug in the /sys/lib/newuser script.
It begins thusly:
#!/bin/rc
user=`{cat /dev/user}
home=/usr/$user
if(test -d $user/tmp){
echo user directories already made
exit no
}
The test to avoid duplicate execution here seems wrong:
it should be testing $home/tmp rather than $user/tmp,
unless there's some reason for the code to expect to
*only* be run from /usr.
Paul
