Too much of a tangent to to put it into the existing thread: Can someone give me a description of why we have user and group 'bin'? Clearly there's a good deal of variance in whether things get installed as root/wheel or bin/bin. I'm not at all clear on what it is intended to acheive, when it should be used and why. Is there any documentation of the purpose and implications of the groups used by freebsd as installed?
