Okay, so I got FreeBSD release 2.0 working on my machine, but all I 
installed to begin with was the /bindist stuff. Now I want to add the
/manpages distribution. How do I go about tagging it onto the system
without killing everything else?

Also, how do I edit / alter / view  user logins or  information?

If you can help, I'd really appreciate it if you can email me with your
response. Thank you for your consideration.
