“Dear Lina,
There is something about my system that is bewildering me. I need
to fix it soon, because we have some new hires coming in about a
week, and it’s going to be hard giving them their accounts
otherwise.”
“When I create new users, they can’t login. I edit the
shadow file and add the hash for the default password, which has
worked many, many times before, so I just can’t figure out what’s
wrong now.“
“I’m tearing my hair out. Hope you have an answer for me before
I go bald.”
