Hello,

thanks for providing details of your problem.
Unfortunately we can't change it.
It's not a bug; it's a feature ;)


Please see acls.c file for details:

/*

  • Add a new user. His password may be NULL or "" if none. His name must not
  • be "none", as this represents the NULL-pointer when dealing with groups.
  • He has default rights, determined by umask.

 */

When You create a user called "none" screen wont work. There's no error, or any other output. Console just goes to the next line.
