OK
.
Consider the following points when entering data about the new user:
―
User ID numbers must be a whole number less than or equal to 2147483647. They
are required for both regular user accounts and special system accounts. Although
User ID numbers 0 through 99 are reserved, you can add a user with one of these
numbers. However, do not use them for regular user accounts. By definition, root
always has User ID 0, daemon has User ID 1, and pseudo-user bin has User ID 2.
―
When adding a user account, you must assign a primary group for a user or accept
the default group, staff (group 10). The primary group should already exist (if it does
not exist, specify the group by a GID number).
For more information user ID numbers and groups, see the Sun Solaris 8
