I'm sorry but I'm somewhat simpleminded probably. Currently I don't understand how setup could create a /etc/passwd file with gid 513 and a group file with gid 10513. IIRC, setup calls both, mkpasswd and mkgroup, using the -l option. This should naturally result in using the 513 in both files. If anybody could sched some light here so that we can avoid that trap in future?!? > The solution was to run mkpasswd and mkgroup both with -l mydomain Oops, just so that this is in the archives: You mean `-d mydomain', do you?
