Yeah, I looked in /etc/passwd, and wwwrun doesn't exist there.
 
It turns out that the wwwrun user ID is coming from Novell's NDS (this is a 
Novell OES server based on SLES 9).  It was apparently auto-created when I 
created the server.
 
What's weird is that I can make wwwrun the owner of files using chown, but I 
can't add wwwrun to groups using usermod (usermod tells me that the user 
doesn't exist).  
 
Thanks anyway.

How do you know that?  Have you checked /etc/passwd?
