[BlueOnyx:27123] Re: Why can I not reuse an old username?

[Larry Smith]

Michael,

  Added a bunch of debug statements to the handle_user.pl
and where it is failing is the test: 

   if (($#others > 0) || ($#mlist >= 0) || ($#other_aliases > -1)) {

the $#other_aliases is greater than -1.  Which when it falls through
from that test it gets to errors++ and hence fails to add the user.
