Hi HPollo-ers,

Notes : OS 10.2+psk7, DN4500

I have problems with crp on a node that is also a "cell",
what means that it has its own private glbd. It's the only
node in the cell too.
What I get when I do "crp -login ..." is : 

	"Unable to set sid - no right to perform operation 
	( from O/S, ACL manager )" and "? (spmlogin),
	no right to perform operation ( OS/ ACL manager )".

If I try a slightly different syntax "crp -me" I get :

	"?(spmlogin) Unable to set project list - no right ..."

I have checked the passwd and it was of type "unstruct", so I 
first tried to fix this by restarting the rgyd, even the glbd
and all the stuff to create a cell ( Managing NCS, Procedure 5-1 ),
but it did not work.  I also remoded /etc/passwd and thought the 
rgyd would create a new one, but that did not work too.

The /sys/registry dbase seems ok.  The problem originated when 
I had to re-install the node and made a copy of the disk with cpt,
but restored it with tar !!  Then problems started with corrupted
file types, but edrgy seemed ok, so I did not pay attention anymore
to the registries.  But a few weeks later I noticed that omniback
had not performed a backup of the node since a month or so.  Big 
panic !  ( Omniback tries to do a crp on every node in order to start
a backup process )


I am posting this here because I get tired of re-installing a node,
whenever some problem occurs that cannot be solved quickly, because
that is exactly what HP support recommends in such cases most of the 
time !!

So the situation is now :

	1.  No /etc/passwd and /etc/group files ( I removed them and
	    rgyd did not create new ones, but /sys/registry/rgy_data/
	    unix/passwd and group are ok.)

	2.  A crp does not work ( see above ).  Login on the node
	    through the DM is ok.  

	3.  Rgy_admin and edrgy are ok.  As is also drm_admin.

Thanks in advance for the help.
