Hi, Itīs me again. Iīve sent a lot of messages about the problems on YP. So, Iīve decided to give up (for a while), and returned the original configuration of login access. After copied master.passwd to /etc, I made a pwd_mkdb on it and the new users didnīt worked. It was the same history : I could make a finger on then, but login, chsh, etc didnīt work. So, I remembered on an ancient discussion about something of loginnames bigger than 8 caracteres. So I decided to cut some caracteres from a user. Changed it from patriciak to patk. After done it, everything worked perfectly. I could login, csh, etc with that user ! So the problem was on the length of the loginname. What was the solution to habilitate login names bigger than 8 caracteres ?
