If you're not constrained for uid space by old systems that don't support more than 32768 uids, move your uid space for all users to >2000. Most (if not all) Unix-like OSes that are still supported these days guarantee that uids >1024 are never used for system accounts, but >2000 gives you a lot of space for that to change over time. Unfortunately, that implies that you'll need to change a LOT of uids, but it's a one-time fix. Others will probably chime in on how to mung the AFS uids. _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
