Re: getpwnam() bug in freebsd-2.2.8 affects qmail

[D. J. Bernstein]

The simplest workaround is to enable the qmail-users mechanism:

   qmail-pw2u < /etc/passwd > /var/qmail/users/assign
   qmail-newu

This is a good idea on all systems, even where getpwnam() isn't buggy,
since the getpwnam() API is inherently unreliable. See qmail-getpw.0.
