My complete install is proving quite useful this week:

     chere
     cron_diagnose.sh
     cron-config
     cvsbug
     exim
     exim-config
     mailq
     mysqlbug
     newaliases
     nfs-server-config
     rcs2log
     runq
     ssh-host-config
     xhere

All of these reference /etc/passwd; some of the above also use /etc/group.

Dave.
