install cannot find command groupadd

[leftfield]

I am installing Scalix on a Fedora 4 server. During the process of "Creating Scalix Server admin user" the install hangs.

The following lines are from the terminal screen

Exception in thread Thread-3:

File "build/py24/sxsystem.py", line 85, in which

MerlinSystemException: Msg: Cannot find command on system: groupadd

The following line is from the log file when the install hung

2006-01-17 12:15:20,104 INFO Configuring server Unix user and server admin user...

Any suggestions would help

Are you running as root ? If you used su, did you use "su -". If not, you need to use the latter form of the command to ensure that you have the correct path set up.

Either way, groupadd is in /usr/sbin which is usually only available to root.

Cheers
