Is the pw (in particular adduser or deluser) an atomic function? The reason I ask is because I have tried lauching multiple login threads, which use a modified PAM module which in turn adds/deletes a user. When I try to login after this bombardment, the passwd file seems to be out of sync. That is, the master.passwd and passwd files do not match. Adil
