Try doing as it asks and try again. If it complains again, I need to see the results of 'ls -l /etc/passwd /etc/group' and the contents of these files. If the files are bigger than a few K, let me know and we'll arrange a way to get them to me off-list. Otherwise, please *attach* the files (rather than append).
