Hi Serge ..
I was able to get this package to work using a work around .. The issue
seems to be that there is already a group for ftp (106) which has been
assigned to gdm .. hence it will not complete the install process ..
The workaround I used was to create an ftp group gid: 123 and then call
the install process again ..
This may not be the best fix, but it did seem to get around the install
issue ..
Cheers
Dave W.
