What were you trying to do?
Nothing.
What's wrong:
The console is scrolling when unauthorized users are apparently trying to ssh in:
19:33 Apr 2 19:33:07 cutter-john sshd[25715]: error: Could not get shadow information for rpm
19:42 Apr 2 19:42:47 cutter-john sshd[26266]: error: Could not get shadow information for rpcuser
19:42 Apr 2 19:42:48 cutter-john sshd[26267]: error: Could not get shadow information for rpcuser
19:42 Apr 2 19:42:49 cutter-john sshd[26268]: error: Could not get shadow information for rpm
19:42 Apr 2 19:42:51 cutter-john sshd[26269]: error: Could not get shadow information for rpm
19:50 Apr 2 19:50:38 cutter-john sshd[26747]: error: Could not get shadow information for cat
What should have happened:
Nothing. I'm told that this happened often enough that the console is supposed to not display these messages.
