Issue/Introduction



If we create a user on selang like this, a pwgrd process is restarted.
#selang
AC>eu testu1 unix password(XXXX)
# ps -aef | grep pwgrd
    root 20854     1  0 10:15:21 ?         0:00 /usr/sbin/pwgrd
# ps -aef | grep pwgrd
    root 21070     1  0 10:24:38 ?         0:00 /usr/sbin/pwgrd

Correct behavior?
