Summary: Use assigned uid/gid numbers for server applications
Product: Beyond LinuxFromScratch
Version: SVN
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P3
Component: BOOK

Many times the book instructs the user to create a new user and group when
installing a daemon such as ftp, httpd, etc. If the useradd/groupadd are done
without specifying the uid/gid, the new number will be mixed in with regular
users. Generally system uid/gid values should be less than 100. BLFS should
recommend a uid/gid for each process and put that in the useradd/groupadd
instructions. Additionally, it would be appropriate for the uid and gid values
to be the same.
