Thank you, Thomas. SuSE also uses /etc/login.defs to set this value.

I'm having one of those "I *know* that I've seen this somewhere, and recently" moments.
Simple question: What's the method to raise the upper bound on UID numbers in SuSE? I have a SLES9 system that I need to tweak in order to accommodate UIDs greater than 60,000. I've just seen this somewhere in the last two weeks, but can NOT find it now that I actually need it. Might be due to encroaching senility, or it might just be the late summer heat...
Many thanks,

I am not sure about SUSE, but in RH it is /etc/login.defs. You could do:
find /etc -type f | xargs grep -i uid | grep -i max
to narrow your search if that's not it.
