Are there any guidelines regarding user and group id number assignment on Fedora?
I'd like to add user/group for daemon, related to installed package, in order to avoid running it as root. What numbers are already reserved and where can I find up to date table with that numbers? I see in my /etc/passwd that regular user accounts are assigned numbers starting from 1000 (was it 500 on older systems?), 0-200 and 201-999 are used by system accounts and packages like httpd, wireshark, etc. I've found this [1] site but it looks outdated and incomplete because it references FC5 and discussions pointed there are from 2005.
