out of curiousity, today I tried to add a user with a massive uid, like this: test:*:150000:1000::0:0:biguid:/:/bin/sh then I get a message like this: /etc/pw.h11310: 18 lines, 1114 characters. vipw: rebuilding the database... pwd_mkdb: 150000 > max uid value (65535) vipw: done fernando# su test $ id uid=150000(test) gid=1000 groups=1000 Seems like vipw doesn't like the vale, but builds it anyway. Do we truely support massive UID's? -J To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
