Correct, "network" was a group too. But they why did it pick userid 100 for my service? Anyway, as I don't _really_ need them to have the same numbers for uid/gid, it's just traditional, is it now ok to go and make my package use the autoassignment? Or is this something that should get tidied up further in the autoassignment code?
