Hi folks, I guess this is a two-faceted question: 1.) If I install Squid from a "port", will in create the recommended squid user and group for me, or will I need to pre-create a squid user and group prior to Squid running? I like the idea of modifying SQUID_CONFIGURE_ARGS in the squid port Makefile to customize the software before I compile and install it, but if it doesn't create the user and group for you...what advantage do you gain to install from a port -vs- downloading the tarball and building from source?
:-) 2.) "As a general rule", when you install software that needs a special user/group, will those users/groups be created when you install from ports, or only from packages?
