Hi,

I have some problems installing screen (3.2b) on a SG Iris.
We have a series of workstation using NIS (YP) and have disk mounted with NFS.

I ran ./configure and was able to make the executable. When  I invoke 'screen'
as root it work ok. However, when I use it as an ordinary user I get:

getpwuid() can't identify your account!

What can I do to resolve this and be able to realy use this nice program?
