Not for the _same_ distro, it isn't. I do share /home with hamm and
slink. I tried it with Slackware and Slink and screwed Slink up
badly! Seems that slackeware starts their user id's at 500, whereas
Debian starts them at 1000. Took me a while to fix all of that mess.
I would not recommend it to anyone.
HTH, YMMV, HAND
