Hello,

I spotted an error on the master.passwd(5) manpage. It reads as follows:

 The passwd file is generated from the master.password file by
 pwd_mkdb(8), has the class, change, and expire fields removed, and the
 password field replaced by a ``*''.

The /etc/passwd file is generated from /etc/master.passwd. It's also
interesting to note that this manpage doesn't state the location of either
of these files. Would it be possible for a FILES section to be created
with both of them listed?

Regards,
Andy
