Yes, it does, and it's in NIS, so you should be able to just remove 
postfix from the local passwd and shadow files and it should Just 
Work[TM].  You'll have to chown/chgrp all the files, of course.
The UID and GID are 822 (mnemonic: RFC 822).

PS - I'll want the Linux box on my desk (division-bell) reimaged -
are the instructions Nico and Kevin posted to dox at

and

still correct?  Or should I just grab a floppy from somebody and be 
told when to reboot from it?
