Maybe I'll keep the static list as a fallback. But yes, you're absolutely right -- I should have supported up to 5 digits even (ifconfig has internal limits of 16-bit unsigned integer for the interface instance-number). >>>> >>>> >>>>> 6.

For example, lagg does not presents %desc nor ipfw0 and I suppose pretty many others do not. You could use %desc if it's present and fall back to internal static list otherwise. Just something cosmetic but when I add a user when it comes to select the shell it does not have a title like: Select a shell Also it said that my user add failed but it was actually added as uid 1005. I added another user and it stated the uid 1005 when I was creating it but showed 1006 in the summary screen. It also said that adding the user failed. Perhaps I used to short a password as there was no password field entered in /etc/master.passwd twat:*:1005:1005::1340540161:1340626570:twat:/home/twat:/bin/sh test1:*:1006:1006::1340454020:1340496000:test1:/home/test1:/bin/tcsh When selecting user account expiry the calendar starts at 1 January 1970. I understand that this is when Unix time started but it would be nice for it to start from the current date. //Clay
