Can someone please confirm if there is anything wrong in the user format in /etc/passwd file 7-m

Hi,

example:

filer> r rdfile /etc/passwd
root:_J9..x8JBbYtmM/lkJtg:0:1::/:
pcuser::65534:65534::/:

I see a 'forward slash' for username root format entry.

forward slash is after M and before l, is that normal ?

We have issues reaching \\filer\c$

Thanks,

Issue is resolved.

Found the culprit - Was using e0M to access c$, however the data traffic was blocked on this Interface.

options interface.blocked.mgmt_data_traffic on

Once I set this to off, c$ became accessible.

Thanks,
