Dustin, I ran into this on 4.0, too. It's fixed now. For those interested in the details, here are some notes from `rpm -q --changelog shadow-utils` : * Mon Mar 14 2005 Peter Vrabec <pvrabec at redhat.com> - allow dollar sign at the end of group/user name (#150770) 2:4.0.3-42.RHEL4 * Wed Oct 27 2004 Adrian Havill <havill at redhat.com> 2:4.0.3-38 - conform to posix for user/group name input checking [def 3.426 and 3.189] which is posix portable filename character set [3.276] while disallowing dash for first char as recommended, and disallow dollar sign -David
