Package: base_floppies The new base floppies install an /etc/passwd file that has /dev/null as the shell for several system users, most notably mail and news, and doesn't have any entry for nobody. This breaks several maintenance scripts run from cron that try to su to these users. David -- David Engel Optical Data Systems, Inc. david@ods.com 1101 E.
