FreeBSD ccdconfig bug

Hi, Following on from the initial ccdconfig bug post, I've found that if you are persistent with chfn in the background while grepping the ccdconfig output for :0: or something similar, you will encounter chunks of /etc/master.passwd which you can reconstruct gradually after a bit of tidying up. It seems to be a bit hit and miss but root does eventually make an appearance along with the majority of the other users under FreeBSD 2.2 and 3.0. Anyway. It works. You just have to play with it.
