Wnn (Wnn System Account) in passwd file using same id as Ingres U ser

Help,

My OSF Manager has just upgraded from 3.2c to 4.0d but when I try to
start Ingres on the machine
iistartup complains that I (Ingres username) am not Ingres?????

I've checked my /etc/passwd file and it now shows the following.

ris:Nologin:11:21:Remote Installation Services
Account:/usr/adm/ris:/bin/sh
wnn:Nologin:12:1:Wnn System Account:/tmp:/bin/sh
ingres:y5gn3eKKbP9t.:12:26:Ingres account:/usr/users/ingres:/bin/ksh

This seems to say that wnn is ID 12 and ingres is ID 12.

The man page for wnn is something todo with Japanese sendmail.

How can I remove/change the ID for wnn, as changing the ID for Ingres
would not be a good idea ?

I've got to decide to go back to 3.2c or try and work out how to change
the 30,000 ingres files to use a new ID.


Thanks
