What is proxy user for?

2007-08-27 Thread Riaan Kruger
Does anybody know why there is a proxy user? I am trying to get an understanding what the different users in /etc/passwd are for. A more general question probably would be, Is there any documentation/resource that gives information/motivation for the users and groups in /etc/? Thanx in advance
