FreeBSD wessex.aldigital.co.uk 2.2.2-RELEASE FreeBSD 2.2.2-RELEASE #0: Sun Oct 12 22:07:29 GMT 1997    root@wessex.aldigital.co.uk:/usr/src/sys/compile/FREEBY_A  i386
>Description:
when upgrading a machine from 2.2.2 to 2.2.5 by using CVSup to get the full
source tree, and then doing a 'make world', it fails during the install
phase, when it tries to install ppp. the screen shows:

install -c -s -o root -g network -m 4550 ppp /usr/sbin
install: unknown group network


>How-To-Repeat:
create a 2.2.2 machine.
install CVSup.
get the 2.2.5-RELEASE branch.
cd /usr/src
make world

>Fix:
add the group 'network' (To be honest, I haven't actually tried this yet
as I'm trying to find out what number to give the group).
