A quick scan of my passwd file reveals that all the "built in" accounts are numbered below 70, except nobody which is 65534. So if yours is similar, then I can't see any problem.

Will that be a problem if i move them over to bsd with preserving the same uid? any advise appreciated, slava To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
