Question Setting the UID in Mac OS X
Hello,

Does anyone know the best way to create a user in Mac OS X with a specific UID?

One (ugly) possibility seems to be to create the user, and then use netinfomanager to fix the UID, and then to run chown on all the user's files, but is there a more elegant way?

Thanks,
Noah
