I have scripts to add new users. However, after that any port that installs a user creates it with a UID after the ones I made. For example I want all employees to have uids starting at 5000, but I would like too port installed uids to be 2000 and up. After I add some users (ie say last user is 5008), the next port that installs a user and doesn't specify uid.. then will get 5009. Tried looking for the adduser program, but could not find adduser.c Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
