Hi people,
The section 3.2. "Users and groups", among other things, says this:
The UID and GID ranges are as follows:
And later it says this:
65534:
User `nobody'.'
There should also be a note that the group name of that gid is `nogroup'.
Also, this:
100-999:
Dynamically allocated system users and groups.
[...]
an unused id based on the ranged specified in `adduser.conf'.
^^^^^^
I don't know what the underlined word means - should it say "ranges",
or "range"?
Please CC: me if replying, thank you...
