i also noticed that (with local accounts), mkpasswd outputs the users 
with wrong group id. all user's group is set to 513, which when shown 
from mkpasswd -g (or mkgroup), is a None group. fortunately i just had 
to manually edit all 4 users and that's all i need to do. isn't this 
observation interesting?

however, i'm not going to plunge into this right now. i have icecast to 
work on at this moment. ;-)
