I'm going to be loading Debian on some desktops that are going to be networked with some machines running a different distribution. I'm noting that the initial userid / groupid on the distributions differ. I need to have them match the other machines for sharing purposes; I haven't been able to talk the client into running NIS.
The userids aren't a problem - I can set those as we create the users. The group ids - especially "users" - are an issue as they are created during installation. Is there a way to set the groupid for the initially created groups? I could live with just specifying the id for users, but it would be nice to have a bit more control. Is it possible during Debian installation to specify the minimum id for both users and groups to have them match the other distributions being used? tia ---Michael -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
