Thanks for the tips guys, it's running right now, has been for a while.
I ran pwd_mkdb /etc/master.passwd, then ran mergemaster -p, and this
time it worked. I don't know why mergemaster -p didn't work before. Even
the -help screen did not show -p as an available option.
Anyway, my first time at this and it appears to be going okay for now.

Thanks,
