Hallo
When I install a regular debian sarge I am induced to enter a non root user to receive certain mails etc. This user has then uid 1000 gid 1000.
Since converting old PCs to debian sarge now I own 3 (three) installations where this is my identity and I use it for my regular work. For a new notebook, which does not work with sarge, I choose to use grml, and have not yet come to the point of installing my user account. I have this for purposes like NIS and nfs and I use it for nfs. this habit should be taken into account
An user like grml-rebuildfstab who is doing system work should not have an uid gid in the normal user range, but in the range 1-999
my 2cts worth of brain damage
best regards
