</I>I don't really understand you there. If you want to access data of
another system the UID (and GID) have to be the same. So you would
have to keep in mind to create users in the same order on each of
those systems.

</I>The question is, why don't we change to 1000 in general. I think most
distros nowadays do.
Mandriva once tried to use 10000, but that never really worked and
they set it back to 500...
In this respect it would be nice to fix bug #29 :-)
