Is there any reason why the nagios user/group isn't using a standardized
UID/GID from /usr/ports/{U,G}IDs these days?  It's been best practice
for port maintainers some time to do this, and it's biting me in the
arse at the moment as I roll out nagios2 (and nrpe2).

I don't wan't to pick a a number that will a) be used by a future
registration or b) a large number that adduser will work around.

And count me as another person who would like to see the nrpe2 port
check for the nagios user/group and add them to the system if needed.
Seeing a process run as user -1 is just wrong... :(

Best Wishes - Peter
