[hylafax-users] Installation problem on OS X 10.3



Hi,

I'm trying to use Hylafax 4.2.3 on Mac OS X 10.3.9 "client". I was able to compile/install the software, but it's the 'chpass' part who is giving me a headache :

elvis:~/temp/hylafax-4.2.3 root# chpass -a "uucp:*:93:66::0:0:uucp:/var/spool/uucp:"
chpass: -a is only supported for /etc/master.passwd
chpass: rebuilding the database...
pwd_mkdb: corrupted entry
pwd_mkdb: at line #1
pwd_mkdb: /etc/pw.tDdk0l: Inappropriate file type or format
chpass: /etc/master.passwd: unchanged


The UID and GID are correct, and I also created the account in NetInfo Manager.

BTW : the instructions here : http://www.hylafax.org/howto/misc/installnotes.html#OSX, should be updated. libtiff is not installed by default on OS X 10.3, and I also had to install GhostScript with libjpeg.
