FreeBSD is setup with one. uid("root") == uid("toor").
In my case, I need to allow several people to access a role account and I
don't want them to share the same password.
In any case, I figured that since s/key is name based, not uid based, the
checks done by keyinfo/keyinit are supposed to follow that.
Cheers,
Anto.
