Re: [Nix-dev] User and group ID ranges

Hi, one part that is still missing then is: what happens when static UIDs in nixpkgs outgrows 500? Would it make sense to reserve some space in the 16-Bit-Area or should we allocate an area in the 32-Bit range? (the other) Christian > On 15 Jan 2016, at 12:10, Eelco Dolstra

[Nix-dev] User and group ID ranges

Hi, we are currently in the process of configuring users and groups with fixed UID/GID numbers from a central directory on a bunch of NixOS machines. I'd like to clarify some policy issues to avoid future ID conflicts. The current policy, as far as I understand it, is: * Fixed UIDs/GIDs are in
