UID/GID

[Francis P. Ling]

Hi all,


Let's say my vchkpw UID/GID is 500/500. If I want the whole domain files to
move to another site/hdd, I would simply tar gzip all files under
~vpopmail/domains/


At the new target, I will simply restore the tar gzip file under the same
location.


Now, must I use the same UID/GID as in the old machine? What effect if I
use other UID/GID, the new one? What is this UID/GID used for?


Thanks!
