    Help, 
    I'm trying to create a small based distribution that will 
    run over the network onto a development workstation.?? My base is rdhat 
    7.0 and I'm having problems 
    with the passwd program.?? I do have an /etc/passwd and 
    everytime I try to runn passwd, I get Can't locate username: No such file or 
    directory.?? SO I wrote the small piece of code below to test it and I 
    error out with "No such file or directory".?? If I look in /etc there is 
    a passwd file.
    I'm not using shadow nor do I wan to and I'm not use 
    PAM.?? I have compile login-utils to not use pam nor shadow.?? Is 
    there anything eles the getpwent()
    needs? 
    Thanks, Chris
