# Important note

**The modified time of /etc/passwd needs to be newer than the system boot time, if it isn't you can use `chsh` to update it. Unfortunately this means you will have to know the password for the account you are running as. Remember that `chsh` doesn't accept empty passwords by default so if it is empty you may have to set one with `passwd`.**
