Hi all, we have FreeBSD 5.4 jail which is mounted via NFS from a host machine. The filesystem containing the jail is mounted from a remote machine. Everything is fine, except when I try to add a user in the jail I get a: vipw: could not lock the passwd file: : Operation not supported I solved the problem in pwd_mkdb using the -i switch. But I can't find any similar options in vipw. Has anyone an idea about this? Bye Valerio Daelli
