Deleting Users and Recreating Them
« on: January 23, 2001, 08:54:50 PM »
I recently upgraded from e-smith 4.0 to 4.01 and it seems to work fine.  I created a backup (through the e-smith-manager interface) of the system when I had everything exactly how I wanted it.  I had to reload the system so I restored this backup.  Some of the users that I had setup kinda got trashed.  I had one user setup to receive mail locally another to forward to another e-mail address.  Neither of them worked.  When I deleted the account to recreate, I got an error that said it didn't work, yet they were no longer there.  When I went to recreate the account, it tells me I can't because it was a previously deleted user.  HELP!

Seems like I remember seing this in the forum with 4.0 but I couldn't find it anywhere.

Thanks,
Brian
