"The problem I found so far is the fact the groups use gid starting from 1 which conflicts with the system groups. I've just fixed it by hand but perhaps I've overlooked something."


Hi, thanks for a nice step by step guide. A few questions, with regards to your statement above, can you detail how you "fixed" it by hand? So basically whenever egroupware adds a user and that user's group for a shell account, the gid has to be changed to the recommended debian users gid range by hand?

Also now that egroupware is taking care of shell account setups, how does one go about adding users from the command line outside of egroupware if so desired - would "adduser" be still a viable option?
