Possible to set initial groupids?
I'm going to be loading Debian on some desktops that are going to be networked
with some machines running a different distribution. I'm noting that the
initial userid / groupid on the distributions differ. I need to have them
match the other machines for sharing purposes; I haven't been able to talk
the client into running NIS.
The userids aren't a problem - I can set those as we create the users. The
group ids - especially "users" - are an issue as they are created during
installation.
Is there a way to set the groupid for the initially created groups? I could
live with just specifying the id for users, but it would be nice to have a
bit more control.
Is it possible during Debian installation to specify the minimum id for both
users and groups to have them match the other distributions being used?
