No X? Good for you! The command line is our friend. The command you need is 'id'. For 
example, my user name on my system is yig, so...

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ id yig
uid=1001(yig) gid=101(king) groups=101(king),0(root)

My groups are set up weird, pay no attention.

I can't seem to find a way to view a user's UID. I could just change it
with usermod, but I'd like to know a way of seeing what the current UID
is without 
changing it. I've googled high and low but to no avail....
 
Thanks - Andy
 
ps - No X on this system, I'm forcing myself to learn everything through
the shell.
