Hi,

I upgraded my 1.5.3 system to 1.6 and some things screwed up.  Somehow I
can't change my password anymore, or use passwd.  When I use passwd I get
the following error:

passwd: /etc/master.passwd: entry inconsistent
passwd: /etc/master.passwd: file unchanged

Does anyone know why??

Also I copied my old master.passwd and my passwd to /etc after I upgraded
and none of the passwords work.  I have to fix this ASAP, so if anyone can
help me it will be much appreciated.
