RE: {bb} bbconfig errors



You should enter bb instead of 505.

Subject: {bb} bbconfig errors

I am trying to set up BB on RedHat ES 4_r_3  when I run
./bbconfig I get an error that no user "Your BB user doesn't exist - Please create it now!"

        Welcome to the Big Brother installation procedure.
Please confirm your OS: [redhatES]:
---> We'll configure for redhatES...
 
        Big Brother needs it's own user id.  If your BB user doesn't exist,
        you'll have to create it then re-run bbconfig.
 
What will be the user ID for BB [bb]: 505
 
*** Your BB user doesn't exist - Please create it now!
*** and re-run bbconfig - EXITING
 
I have created the user bb and another user BB just to make sure
 
bb:x:505:505:Big Brother:/home/bb:/bin/bash
BB:x:506:506::/home/BB:/bin/bash
Is do I have to specify a different home directory, UID and or GID ?
 
Any help with this is greatly appreciated.
