Everybody has their own way of doing things. I prefer to only have the users/groups in my files that are necessary for the packages I install. That way if a number comes up on a ls -l, it flags the problem right away. You may want to do things differently. That's OK. However, there is a master BLFS (not LFS) list in the BLFS book. I suppose we could add the master list to the blfs-bootscripts for those that want to load the whole thing, but I also want to leave BLFS the way it is so we have the flexibility to add users and groups without a change to LFS. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
