If you have data you want to keep under /home/*/ on your various machines, It'll be a pain the re-affect the correct uid/usernames: changing users uid when you have multiple users (uid>=1000) could result in a boring task as you first have to move users to unused uids (say 20000, 20001, etc.) and then set them to the final uids you want to see on every machine (1000, 1001, etc.).Therefore I am just going to sync the names between the two machines. To do that I guess that I just need to change the file /etc/passwd and /etc/group Should I update the names somewhere else?
