Ok, understood. Though I thought anything over 499 would show up

user and group I am creating is indeed a non login user. How does
MacPorts determine which uid/guid to use? Is there a higher range
that it starts with that also does not show up in the login window?
On my old Tiger install, before doing a clean install with Snow
Leopard, I did have a lot of users showing up in System Preferences
from ports I'd tested once and then uninstalled. A little annoying.
Not sure if there's a way ports are meant to avoid having their
users show up there.
I don't know if it works, but the internets seem to say you can do
something like:
sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow
HiddenUsersList -array-add user1 user2 user3 user4
might be something nice to add to base/ (as an option to adduser
perhaps)
