Can anyone tell me why the uucp user needs to have a default shell and
home directory set?

uucp:*:66:66:UUCP pseudo-user:/var/spool/uucppublic:/usr/libexec/uucp/uucico

Both of those no longer exist by default in FreeBSD, with my changes.
Is there any reason why this can't be changed to:

uucp:*:66:66:UUCP pseudo-user:/:/sbin/nologin

?

Kris
