   I'm currently setting up MBSE as a future replacement for my current BBS   
   software. When testing and preparing the new system, I ran into the same   
   problem. And sicne I did not have any content in the system at that time, I   
   went around that issue by simply deleting the user with userdel -r (actually,    
    deleted both, the mbse user as well as the bbs group).    
      
   However, If you already have custom menus, screens and content in your system   
   you should (of course) *not* delete the existing user.
