SEMI- Corrupt passwd/shadow files...

Thanks to the following for their responses (hope I didn't forget anyone):

JOSEPH AAJ Chackompally <AAJ@necsin.nec.com.sg>

"Karl E. Vogel" <vogelke@c17mis.region2.wpafb.af.mil>

David Thorburn-Gundlach <david@bae.uga.edu>

Although the general concensus is to do more in the way of preventative

maintenance, I still didn't really get an answer to the gist of the

question which basically was:

Can a process be run in a cron or at startup even with a 0-length passwd

file ?
