Configure has an issue with this for some reason with Solaris 8 i386
release.
Maybe should test for id location since xpg is mysterious in nature?
case "$host" in
*-*-sunos4.1.1*)
idcommand="/usr/xpg4/bin/id -u"
;;
*-*-solaris*)
idcommand="/usr/xpgr4/id -u"
;;
*)
idcommand="id -u"
;;
esac

am only up to about 300 users. Performance from the users' point of view is
great; if I send myself a message (I'm in Spain, the server is in the
States) it's delivered back to me in 2-3 seconds. Would this time increase
if I had 5000+ users on the system?
mail delivery time will not increase. What increases is the time it
takes to rebuild the vpasswd.cdb file when any modifications to it
are make. Such as adding/deleting users, changing user passwords.
