Maybe you need to correct the problem in /etc/passwd. In which
encoding is é encoded? In UTF-8? Or in some ISO Latin/ISO-8859
encoding? In UTF-8 é is two bytes: C3 A9, in the 8-bit ISO encodings
it's one byte, E9. Could you need to use this encoding in /etc/passwd...
What is your system's documentation telling about allowed characters
and encodings used for /etc/passwd? BTW, how did you insert your name?
Could be there is a bug in your system...
