Next try was to reactivate the deactivated user "erster". After that,
the password was removed from the file /etc/passwd.

Always replying to myself. Hopefully this becomes not my new standard.

I reactivated "erster" via YaST (and changed his password). So the YaST
module ran through /etc/passwd and corrected the entry for "ufqadm" in
the by.

Obviously, passwd forgets to trigger pwconv, at least for users with
shell = /bin/csh :-(

Werner
