PROBLEM: (QAR 69318) (Patch ID: OSF440DX-005) ******** This patch fixes the problem with the useradd, usermod, userdel commands removing the last entry of the /etc/passwd file when the last line of the /etc/passwd file does not end with the new line character (\n).

PROBLEM: (76823) (PATCH ID: OSF440DX-015) ******** This patch fixes the problem in which a command 'uermod -D' does not display the 'Expire' date when it is set. For example: #usermod -D -e 01/01/01 (this will set the 'Expire' date in the default file to 01/01/01) #usermod -D (this should display all defaults values, but the 'Expire' value is not shown) Distributed = 0 Local = 1 Administrative Lock Applied = 1 Next User id = 200 Minimum User id = 12 Maximum User id = 65535 Primary Group = users,15 Base Directory = /usr/users Skeleton Directory = /usr/skel Shell = /bin/sh Inactive (days) = 60 Expire (date) = PROBLEM: (TKTB10045, UVO90893, BCGMB1D0D, UTO52178A, MGO83278A, UTO57196A) (PATCH ID: OSF440DX-016) ******** This patch fixes a problem in which dxaccounts does not allow the system manager to add NIS users when the system is running enhanced security.
