Forgive me if this has been asked already...

I installed C-News using Brad Heads excellent VNUS article off the
Purdue archives as a source.  Everything's been great.  The other day,
however, I munged some system files and had to reload 3.0 on the system.
It seems 3.0 has no 'bin' account as a standard system account.
Is it best to add it?  If so, how?  Or is it better to change my
answers in the conf/build script?  If so, to what?

E-mail me at dylan@angst.com and I'll summarize.
Thanks again.
