Tested with this up to date Karmic: The behavior is a little different but it still refuses to create a user with UID of 100000.
Following warning is outputted: (users-admin:1866): Glib-GObject-WARNING **: value "100000" of type 'gint' is invalid or out of range for property 'uid' of type 'gint' There is also additional annoyance as the group for the user is created but the user get silently lost, this makes further attempts to create user with same name fail with "Group "xxx" already exits / Plese choose a different name." Creating a group with gid=100000 fails also (users-admin:2043): Glib-GObject-WARNING **: value "100000" of type 'gint' is invalid or out of range for property 'gid' of type 'gint' Tested with: gnome-system-tools 2.28.1-0ubuntu2 on amd64 -- problem with big uids in "Users and Groups" tool https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/303997 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
