I just installed 9.1 on a new system and ran into a difference between how the installer creates new users and how drakconf does. I created a couple of users during the install and they ended up with uid = 501 and 502. As they always have on previous versions of Mandrake.
Then when the system was up I created several more, very carefully creating them in the same order as on our other systems. After I spent all the time getting them created and set up, I discovered that they did not match the uid's on our other systems. It seems that drakconf starts its numbering at 500. So, using letters for the order in which I created them, the users were a=501, b=502, c=500, d=503, e=504, etc. I had to rip out all the users from c up, create a dummy at 500 and redo them. Argghhh.
