I think that you will a number of these 'defaults' can be adjusted by
editing:

/etc/default/useradd
/etc/login.defs

Hey, I learned something today.

In /etc/login.defs,

#
# Min/max values for automatic uid selection in useradd
#
UID_MIN                   500
UID_MAX                 60000

#
# Min/max values for automatic gid selection in groupadd
#
GID_MIN                   500
GID_MAX                 60000

may solve the whole mess.

It may be a nice idea to change these defaults to prevent this headache in the future. I will play with this at home and then submit an enhancement request if it works as I would like.

Thank you for the info.

Robin
