User ID (UID)

NOTE: Changing a user’s UID may alter filesystem access
permissions that apply to that UID. In addition, any existing
permissions for a UID previously assigned to a user that are
changed to a different UID may become active if another user
is created with the same UID. Carefully consider security
configuration on existing files and directories before changing
the UID of a user.
