I have added a new user which requires a specific UID. useradd -c "Example Agent Account" -g eaa -d /eaa -u 6000 examp03 Trying to login using Putty I enter the ID and password then get: PuTTY Fatal Error - Server sent disconnect message: "Command terminated on signal 25." Using usermod I knock the UID down to a low order number and I can log in correctly. usermod -u 511 examp03 This tells me there is probably a MAXIMUM UID so I looked in /etc/login.defs and found: UID_MAX 60000 which is well above my 6000 number. Any ideas where I can look next??? Thanks Steve -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
