2006-02-16 18:22:25 Phil Bull yelp: status Unconfirmed Needs Info
2006-02-16 18:22:25 Phil Bull yelp: statusexplanation Thanks for the report. Could you provide some more information about the problem, please? How are you trying to create many users at one time? One by one, and the application cannot add any more after 5 or 6 have been created? Or in another way? What happens when adding users fails? Does the application crash, freeze, or just not add any more users? Thanks again!

2006-02-19 11:00:07 Phil Bull gnome-system-tools: statusexplanation I've confirmed this, as I get problems too. Can anyone else reproduce this issue? Also, I couldn't find an upstream bug.

I would also put the severity up to "major", because in my opinion, loosing your own password is a really big problem. I found upstream a similar bug (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=315254) that affects g-s-t running on freeBSD, cataloged as MAJOR severity. In that bug, the users-admin tool hangs even if you create only one user. "It greys out and hangs indefinetly", as it happens to me. [I didn't find the accurate english term before. Where I should say "it hangs" I was saying "it freezes", that is similar, but not the same].
