I'm assuming that jsmith is UID 2000 on every system, regardless of how he got the number. Now if someone meant using *different* UID/GID on every system and they're not synchronized...right, that'd be a nightmare. The OP was just talking about changing from "last +1" to arc4random. Synchronizing UID/GID across servers (if you're not using a directory of some sort) is the same headache regardless of how you pick them. If the OP meant every server has different, unique randomized UID/GIDs then that's a separate craziness. -- andrew fabbro and...@fabbro.org
