Hello Corona688,
I have both RHEL6.5 and RHEL7.5 and they behave the same. I've not thought about testing it on our couple Ubuntu servers but the need never comes up. The number that we're using as the login ID are employee numbers affectionately known as WorkDay ID's assigned by the AD group. We're using them so the NAS filers play nice with the Linux user when accessing mixed filesystems with permissions controlled by Windows. We were basically forced to since the storage group didn't want to maintain a Linux user name to WorkDay ID map. As for the UID I'm simply incrementing to the next available number. It never dawned on me when this took place that ps would interpret the numeric login ID as the UID. I have to assume that's what's happening. I may end up having to create an alias much like the code you suggested.

fprintd-list username [usernames...]

DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the fprintd command-line utilities.
The fprintd daemon is accessed through D-Bus by those command-line utilities.
ARGUMENTS
username
The username for the user for which you want to query or modify the fingerprint database.
Not that fprintd-list and fprintd-delete require at least one username to be passed, and support multiple usernames.
fprintd-enroll and fprintd-verify will use the current username if none are passed on the command-line.
-f finger
For fprintd-enroll, the finger to enroll. Possible values are:
left-thumb, left-index-finger, left-middle-finger, left-ring-finger, left-little-finger, right-thumb, right-index-finger, right-
middle-finger, right-ring-finger, right-little-finger.
The default is automatic, selecting the first available finger for swipe devices, or all the enrolled fingers, for press devices.
TEST APPLICATIONS
fprintd-enroll
Will enroll the user's right index finger into the database.
fprintd-list
Will list the user's enrolled fingerprints.
fprintd-verify
Will enroll the user's right index finger into the database.
fprintd-enroll
