Обсуждение: Windows port problems

Hello,

Some people experienced the problem (including me) that the '/etc/passwd'
file was not found. What do I need to do? Is there somewhere a site which
gives step-by-step instructions what to do?
Searching the net did not help much, so I'll try it via the list.

Regards,
Stephan

You need to run mkpasswd (and mkgroup).  Here's one URL that explains
it.
