Imagine I would like in the future to have an opensolaris distro tailored to a new iPhone device. I am not sure I would like to see a MySQL or WebServd user in this distribution. How the newly designed IPS system would handle the dynamic addition of users/groups? Not a question for the webstack alias, but maybe someone has the answer there? Thanks, Ludo
