Hi,

I am running a VM with Xen 3.0.3. The domU OS is Scientific Linux 4 which is based on Red Hat Enterprise 4.4. I could deploy the virtual machine, and it runs all the services but I can't add new user. I get the following error:

[root@CTB /]# uname -r
2.6.9-42.0.3.EL.cernxenU
[root@CTB /]# adduser testuser
adduser: cannot rewrite password file

Any ideas?

Omer
