OK, so that does yield. . .rather different results than it used to.
Poking around with id compared to the the contents of /etc/passwd
(from mkpasswd) and also compared to what my x86 install (not using
snapshot) does, I see one glitch and one difference:
Glitch (also true for x86 1.7.29-2):
id returns effectively immediately for all users and non-users _except_:
> time id Administrators
uid=544(+Administrators) gid=544(+Administrators)
groups=11(+Authenticated Users),544(+Administrators)
real 0m2.296s
user 0m0.015s
sys 0m0.015s
Difference:
[x86 1.7.29]> id TrustedInstaller
uid=4294967294(TrustedInstaller) gid=4294967294(TrustedInstaller)
groups=4294967294(TrustedInstaller)
[x86_64 snapshot]> id TrustedInstaller
id: TrustedInstaller: no such user
That's all I've found, happy to try other tests anyone can suggest.
