I'm migrating an old RedHat server to a new Debian server. In migrating the data there's a problem in that on the RH server the UID starts at 500, on the Debian server the UID starts at 1000. Resulting in something like this:

Old     User    New
UID     Name    UID

500     Moe     1000
501     Larry   1001
502     Curley  1002
503     Shemp   1003

I've tossed this around in my head and haven't really arrived at a good method to correct the UID's on the new server. I presume there will be a similar problem with GID's as well, although I've not yet confirmed that.

I'm hopeful that someone will give me an idea that will give me a kick-start so to speak.

Thanks,
Mike
