Description Ray Strode [halfline] 2013-11-19 18:04:20 UTC
using login.defs just isn't right.  People who configure remote login will set UID_MIN and UID_MAX to be outside the remote range (so local users don't get conflicting UIDs with remote users).

We need to just let the distro specify a minimum UID and have a one off hack for the fedora migration from 500 to 1000, I think.
