Hi! > But he shouldn't get the idea that he doesn't need the "uucp" user and > group, like I did (after reading that you shouldn't have users you don't > need). OS upgrade goes awry. There IS a make.conf thing "NOUUCP=true", > but I haven't tried it yet, so can't say how well it works. I have tried it and can at least say that it has caused no problems to me. Upgraded from 4.6-RELEASE to RELENG_4_6. Mergemaster notified me that /etc/uucp and some uucp-related scripts in /etc/periodic/ exist only on old system so I deleted these once the upgrade was complete. I still left the uucp user and group intact, though. -- Toomas Aas | toomas.aas@raad.tartu.ee | http://www.raad.tartu.ee/~toomas/ * I went to a general store, but they wouldn't let me buy anything specific.
