sudo dscl . -create /Groups/vmail PrimaryGroupID 5000 sudo dscl . -create /Users/vmail UniqueID 5000 sudo dscl . -create /Users/vmail PrimaryGroupID 5000 This will add a group with the name vmail and gid 5000, add a new user vmail with uid 5000 and set the primary group for this user. If you additionally set a UserShell such as /usr/bin/false it will not show up in the login window. > I have made more complex ports in the past that added users, and those > always worked.
