Issue
Error: "The system will not allow you to run the iPlanet Servers as "nobody". Choose another user."
Cause
73709 [HP-UX ONLY]. You cannot install an Enterprise Server with a default user of "nobody".
The GID of nogroup on most HP systems is a number less than 0. This causes a problem when installing the iPlanet Web Server or Netscape Enterprise Server on HP-UX platforms.
Resolution
webuser:*:<UID>:<GID>::/:
NOTE: The GUID must not be a negative number.
During the installation of the webserver software, use 'webuser' when prompted for 'nobody.'
