Unable to add the user censored

Account Creation Complete!!!

Whats could be wrong :S

 

[Website Rob]

Off-hand I would say that 'censored' is a restricted word and cannot be used for a Username.

 

[PWSowner]

I doubt "censored" is the actual username he was using, plus, that username is allowed.

I don't know if this will help any, but here's the part of the account creation script (wwwacct) where that comes up.

if (!getpwnam($user)) {
	deaderror "Unable to add the user $user";	
}

I can study the code later, when I have a bit of time, to see what it means if no one else knows.

 

[Chew]

it means that the username and password CANNOT be the same.

:D Chew

 

[PWSowner]

Can't mean that because I just tested creating an account with username and password of censored and it worked fine.


Are you still having trouble?
