10.2-BETA1: pw(8) does not support "pw useradd name -u 0"
Hi,
In our system build scripts we have this command:
/usr/sbin/pw -V $d useradd toor -u 0 -g 0 -d /root -s /bin/sh -c
"Bourne-again Superuser" -g wheel -o
After 10.2-BETA1, the toor account is being added with UID 1001 instead of UID
0. This looks like a problem with line 754 in pw_user.c, which has this test:
        /*
         * Check the given uid, if any
         */
        if (id > 0) {
                uid = (uid_t) id;
                if ((pwd = GETPWUID(uid)) != NULL &&
conf.checkduplicate)
                        errx(EX_DATAERR, "uid `%u' has already been
allocated", pwd->pw_uid);
        } else {
                struct bitmap   bm;
The (id > 0) test should probably be (id >= 0) to allow ?-u 0? to be
passed on the command line.
This change is from r285092 by bapt at . Was this change in behaviour
intentional?
Regards,
Jan Mikkelsen
