DBUS Error

Hello Everyone,
       I today did a clean install of Arch but im getting a error while boot up.Its with the "dbus" daemon.The error im getting is as follows:-
 

[root@Rajiv-Nair rajiv]# /etc/rc.d/dbus restart
:: Stopping D-BUS system messagebus                                      [DONE]
:: Starting D-BUS system messagebus                                        [BUSY]
   Unknown group "network" in message bus configuration file
                                                                                                   [DONE]

     This is my /etc/rc.conf file:-

# End of file

BTW im using Intel Chipset and had to edit out my fstab and /boot/grub/menu.lst for arch to work,i dont know whether its because of that or something else.

Thanks in Advance,

Re: DBUS Error

Does the group "network" exist in /etc/group?

Re: DBUS Error

Shouldn't 'network' is before 'dbus' in the module loading order?

Re: DBUS Error

Module order? You mean DAEMONS order? No, I have dbus right after syslog-ng at second position, doesn't require network stuff.

Re: DBUS Error

No i dont have "network" as a group in /etc/group and rearranging daemons doesnt help,ive tried it out and the message comes anyways.

Re: DBUS Error

Thnx Snowman,tht worked,but...

         Here's what i have come to see tht when i did a clean install yesterday and upgraded to latest packages,certain files which had "glibc" as their dependencies got installed before glibc and were putting out some error which i'd overlooked.Today i again did a clean install but before upgrading i did a force install of "glibc" and i figured tht all the problems i had earlier were solved.
I am using a Intel Chipset ,so i dont know whether its a hardware specific problem related to kernel 2.6.19 but IMO  tht priority thingy of glibc needs to be taken care about.
