Hi everybody, I am trying to upgrade my FreeBSD box from 5.2.1 to 5.3. All the building operations were successful and the kernel installation too. So following the handbook, i made the mergemaster in order to merge configurations files. But I have a problem about merging /etc/master.passwd. I saw that there were new systems accounts in RELENG_5.3 but I have my propers accounts which I don't want to loose. So my question is : how to merge correctly and properly the /etc/master.passwd file. I saw in the help of mergemaster the v options which allows to include common files but it doesn't seems to work. Does anybody can help me in order to make this merge safely ? Thank you for your answers Best Regards, Ptitoliv
