I did follow through with the "smitty user" process and it all looks good compared to a user added using the root id. I filled in the follow fields and only those fields and left the others either blank or at the default.

User Name
Primary group
Group SET
Initial Program
User Info

Below are the results of
Code:
lsuser

run against both ids.

User created with my id using sudo.

Code:
root@foobar:"/home/root/dr $ "lsuser timer
timer id=217 pgrp=usr groups=usr home=/home/timer shell=/bin/ksh gecos=Test user login=true su=true rlogin=true daemon=true admin=false
sugroups=ALL admgroups= tpath=nosak ttys=ALL expires=0 auth1=SYSTEM auth2=NONE umask=22 registry=files SYSTEM=compat

Id created using the root id.

Code:
root@woody:"/home/root/dr $ "lsuser timer2

DESCRIPTION

	 xen-create-nfs is a simple script which allows you to easily create
	a single configuration file for a Xen guest which will mount its remote
	filesystem over an NFS root.

	 It doesn't create any images to use for local storage, and it doesn't
	support more than the minimal number of options to completement the
	existing xen-create-image script, however it is hopefully useful.

REFERENCE

	 For more details on what you'll need to support NFS-root Xen guests
	the following article, written by the author, might be useful:
