Actually, this was the first thing I did (before posting to the usenet). It
does have files as Password REGISTRY.

Is there a system in a world where compat works? On all systems I have
encoutered so far (be it AIX or Linux or anything else), compat doesn't
work (and no, it's not always the same setting, and no, it was not
configured by me).

Thanks for your help so far. Any other ideas?
