[Oisf-users] Error when running suricata with --user & --group

[Sylvain Chillaud]

Must be something of the like.

I deleted both user and group, recreated them with separate commands
(groupadd and useradd) instead of what is said in the guide linked in my
first post, and it's working.

Thanks,
Sylvain
