I have some GID's and UID's on my system that date back to FreeBSD 0.9. No, actually, they date back to my NSC 32016-based GENIX system, come to think of it, which predates all FreeBSD. (Really cool architecture - highly orthongonal - very VAX-line - totally unlike the IA32 "native mode" stuff - 2Mhz and 256K of RAM. :) Anyway - enough reminiscing... On my next system roll forward, I would like to remap these into the new conventions and standards for GID's and UID's, and I imagine I'll do that with various "find" and "chown" commands, but if someone knows of a more elegant way to remap these in the dump/restore process, I'd love to know about it. Thanks! -- John Lind john@starfire.MN.ORG
