Hi. I actuallly did see that, but that seems to talk about the shadow.service "failing" to start or run properly. the terminal message I was getting said: shadow.service - Verify integrity of password and group files Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/shadow.service; static; vendor preset: disabled) Active: inactive (dead) So it was like, "what do that mean"? And since it mentioned checking the password file, I figured I'd best check into it. I don't know what the shadow.service is, and am new to systemd.
