Title:
Greete
This is a problem for me using:
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:Pop!_OS 19.04
Release:19.04
Codename: disco
So I did a:
sudo nano -w /etc/login.defs
Changed to this:
UID_MIN 500
UID_MAX 599
Still not working so trying this as well:
sudo nano -w /etc/gdm3/custom.conf
Add t
I can confirm that it is not longer working in 12.04 LTS.
Pretty bad, because I migrated the first machine from openSUSE to Ubuntu
and I have since a long time a established infrastructure with NFS3 and
users in the range 500-1000.
Comment #19 rise up the general question what is the intention of
This is not working for me in Precise (12.04). Though UID_MIN is 500 in
/etc/login.defs, gdm and lightdm do not show my UID 501 in the login
screen.

The fix to this bug is arguably incorrect. The UID_MIN value in
login.defs is only for specifying the start of the range of dynamically-
allocated UIDs assigned by useradd or newusers. It does not account for
user accounts added to the system via other means, such as pre-existing
accounts with lo

the bug has been fixed in lucid, if you are speaking about karmic not
sure it will be backported now since lucid will be available soon and
user who have been using ubuntu with that issue for those months can
probably wait an extra one now too

I agree with jonas: there is already a configuration for this in
/etc/login.defs. I'm testing a patch that reads this value.

I changed my UID to 501, long while back, to match the one on my Mac, so
that nfs works smoothly.
This was not a big issue before Karmic. After changing my UID, I would
not see my username in 'Users and Groups', but I never used it regularly
anyway. I wish I knew the /etc/login.defs trick before.
My personal account at home is an old Mandrake one (some seven years old) with
UID=501 and I have always kept it this way because thousands of files and dirs
on my external disks has this owner and I am too lazy to chown all of them, but
I'm used to manually change my user's id in /etc/passwd an
possibly the best way to fix this regression is, as suggested by Milan
in #247910, to utilize the UID_MIN setting in /etc/login.defs. another
way would be to use the gdm MinimalUID setting which I believe is what
was used prior to Karmic. However, seems it would make more sense for
consistency to u
