To the best of my knowledge, /etc/passwd- is the shadow password file for
/etc/passwd.
What circumstances would cause the '/etc/passwd-' file to be missing entries
that ARE in '/etc/passwd'?
The system seems to be functioning fine.
As always, Slackware is the distro being used here. (running version
8.0/Kernel 2.4.18) Webmin is also in use.
