Hi, I sent this email to the maintainer of net/flowd some months ago but didn't get a reply. Below is also a patch that fixes the PLIST file.

When I try to start /usr/local/sbin/flowd it reports the following error in /var/log/daemon Aug 31 11:16:42 cognac flowd[29382]: chdir(/nonexistent): No such file or directory The passwd entry sets a home directory of /nonexistent as the default for the flowd user but that doesn't exist. I set it to /var/empty as the other daemon users and that makes flowd start. cheers, Nickus
