Title: Users on filesystem, not visible in Manager.
Post by: cydonia on May 12, 2004, 12:57:31 AM

Hi,

After a few modifications of my server (changing from server -> gatway -> server -> gateway :) testing), i came back in to the server manager.  And no users where there,  no problem, except, the users still exist in the linux file system.

I cannot do anything with the accounts though, email/file servers, nothing exists, just the dirs on linux at:

/home/e-smiths/fies/users/



Is it ok just to delete the user dirs here, and then create the users again with the manager?  Or will i have to delete all files related to the old acount, to keep things clean?


Thanks.

Also, this is the exact mesaage SME give me..

"Operation status report
Error: the account "namehere" can't be created because there is already a system account of that name."
