shadow passwords

Installed 1.1a without a problem, also have kde3 working nicely.
Now I tried to add a user, using Kuser. But after saving and closing Kuser, I get the msg for every (system)user, that there is no shadow for it...
Is there no shadow passwords installed? (which would surprise me) or am I just missing something ?
I just have the basic system installed (followed the install page to the letter) and have X and KDE3.0, that's it. Any help would be great.

I have the exact same problem. When I add a user from the command line though, there are no problems. Anybody know what the error could be?

well I just think they do not have passwords stored thats all.

The developers made it for us a little bit convienent. imagine after that you have to create all these basic user and groups.
