  • Archlinux issue

    From Mark Da Silva@1:229/550 to All on Wed Nov 11 06:51:01 2020
    Hello,

    On my Archlinux PC I have mbse installed, I get the following issue during install.

    Now set the login password for user 'mbse'

    New password:

    Retype new password:

    passwd: password updated successfully

    Adding user 'bbs'useradd: Warning: missing or non-executable shell '/opt/mbse/bin/mbnewusr'

    , removing password:

    File /etc/shadow.mbse is your backup of /etc/shadow

    * Normal user login works
    * BBS Login doesn't
    * MBSE login works.

    Was this a re-install ?
    IS this the complete log of the install session, if not please include it.

    What version of mbse are you using ?

    Is the version of Archlinux up to date ?
