mkpasswd and mkgroup are NT only tools. The user and
group information is taken from the NT user account
database with is not availbale on 9X systems, obviously.
To make things worse, the NETAPI32.DLL is different on
both systems, unfortunately.
If you want to create /etc/passwd and /etc/group on
a 9X system, you'll have to edit them by yourself.
Use the uid and gid which you get returned by the `id'
command.
