Hello,

I've read UPDATING and done what it said, but this is what happens to me:

su-2.05b# cd /usr/src
su-2.05b# make installworld
ERROR: Required proxy user is missing, see /usr/src/UPDATING.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/src.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/src.
su-2.05b# grep proxy /etc/group
proxy:*:62:
su-2.05b# grep proxy /etc/master.passwd
proxy:*:62:62::0:0:Packet Filter pseudo-user:/nonexistent:/sbin/nologin

I don't know how to add the user if it's already there. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Ben
