I'm getting some odd errors, as posted here, and a [fail] on boot about checking password integrity. I think I haven't updated my group & gshadow files correctly. here they are:

There is a dedicated utility to verify those, which is also where the errors come from, have a look at `grpck`.
Also, you shouldn't edit those files manually; use groupmod/add/del instead

Post the errors: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=57855
Not a Sysadmin issue, moving to NC...

ok, didn't want to double-post, but
Interface 'wlp2s0' is controlled by netctl-auto
Error getting authority: Error initializing authority: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1:
GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.TimedOut: Activation of org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1 timed out (g-dbus-error-quark, 20)
Failed to restart netctl-auto@wlp2s0.service: Connection timed out
Usage: netctl-auto {COMMAND} ...
[--help|--version]
Commands:
list List available profiles (active='*', disabled='!')
current List currently active profiles
switch-to [PROFILE] Switch to a profile, enable it if necessary
enable [PROFILE] Enable a profile for automatic selection
disable [PROFILE] Disable a profile temporarily for automatic selection
enable-all Enable all profiles for automatic selection
disable-all Disable all profiles temporarily for automatic selection
EDIT: this error appears both on cli and from within in X11.
btw, when group.pacnew and gshadow.pacnew arrive, how do I know how to merge them with the old ones?

Err, I was referring to the errors related to the files in your thread title...

glad you moved this to NC, since I assumed the error above started appearing shortly after I tried to update group & gshadow that there was a connection. The other error failing to verify passwords only appears occassionally on boot.

If it is related, you'll find out after resolving any issues with /etc/{group,gshadow} and then you can report it in the other thread that is dedicated to that error.
This thread is about the validity of /etc/{group,gshadow}, so please focus on that:

ran grpck, removed one double entry. netctl error remains. After a couple uploads the boot error hasn't popped up yet.

Please remember to mark your thread as [Solved] by editing your first post and prepending it to the title.

sure except that the error appeared again during boot!
[failed] Failed to start Verify integrity of password and group files.
tried pwck, a user group was missing, might be ok now, will wait a few boots to be sure
