      I get this message in the system logs every time the system boots:

      
      rc.bootup: The command '/usr/sbin/pw groupdel 2001' returned exit code '65', the output was 'pw: unknown group `2001''
      
      

      The group does exist:

      
      /usr/sbin/pw groupshow -a
      wheel:*:0:root
      daemon:*:1:daemon
      kmem:*:2:root

      vnstat:*:284:
      redis:*:535:
      OpenVPN:*:2001:xxx,ccc,vvv
      
      

      But if I try to run the same command manually I get the same error:

      
      /usr/sbin/pw groupdel 2001
      pw: unknown group `2001'
      
      

      Running command with -g successfully removes the group

      /usr/sbin/pw groupdel -g 2001
      

      Has anyone run into this issue?

      Thanks!
