A note about the future of ecsoft2.org

ecsoft2.org runs on software (Drupal 7 and PHP 7.4) that reached its end of life years ago and no longer receives security updates. Keeping the site online safely is getting harder.

Giving it a future means migrating it to a current platform — and that is only worth doing if people still use it and want to help keep it alive.

If you care about ecsoft2.org, as a user, a contributor, or someone willing to lend a hand, please ggambatiscali [dot] it (get in touch) by January 31, 2027.

If no one comes forward by then, the site will be turned into a read-only archive, so that its content stays available.

klUsrMgr - (kLIBC) User Manager Version 1.4.5 ============================================= (c) 2007-2023 by Herwig Bauernfeind and Silvan Scherrer for bww bitwise works GmbH. The purpose of this set of utilities is to manage LIBC users and groups. These files are found in %UNIXROOT%\etc and have the following names - master.passwd - group These files are syntactically properly maintained and compiled into pwd.db and spwd.db using the pwdmkdb.exe utility. Note: Former revisions of klUsrMgr could damage Samba user structures. From 1.1.5 onward all potentially harmful operations are disabled in case Samba User Manager is found. Note: The former name of klUsrMgr was klibcum. It had to be renamed in order to avoid certain name associations. Note: klUsrMgr 1.3.2 added the group "wheel" which made Samba crash upon start groupmod -x "wheel" solves this problem. Later revisions remove any occurence of group "wheel".
