I'm having a problem with adduser on both of my FreeBSD 950322-SNAP 
machines.  The script just hangs and runs away after the last okay.  
Tried the latest one in current also:

lyria:/usr/sbin# ./adduser.perl

Use option ``-silent'' if you don't want see some warnings & questions.

Check /etc/shells
Check /etc/master.passwd
User news: illegal shell: ``/nonexistent''
Check /etc/group
User ``nobody'' has gid 9999 but a group with this gid does not exist.
Enter your default shell: csh sh tcsh [tcsh]: 
Your default shell is: tcsh -> /usr/local/bin/tcsh
Enter your default HOME partition: [/usr/users]: 
Copy dotfiles from: /usr/share/skel no [/usr/share/skel]: 
Send message from file: /etc/adduser.message no 
[/etc/adduser.message]: 
Use passwords (y/n) [y]: 

Ok, let's go.
Don't worry about mistakes. I ask you later for correct input.
Enter username [a-z0-9]: jamesl
Enter full name []: James Inhyuk Lee
Enter shell csh sh tcsh [tcsh]: 
Uid [1011]: 
Login group jamesl [jamesl]: 
Login group is ``jamesl''. Invite jamesl into other groups: guest no 
[no]: 
Enter password []: NiceTie

Name:     jamesl
Password: NiceTie
Fullname: James Inhyuk Lee
Uid:      1011
Gid:      1011 (jamesl)
Groups:   jamesl 
HOME:     /usr/users/jamesl
Shell:    /usr/local/bin/tcsh
Ok? (y/n) [y]:                                 <---hangs here
^C
lyria:/usr/sbin# 

Am I doing something wrong?
