Re: Cluster-useradmin

[<Rob...@co...>]

I agree about the limitation that is currently on the tool.  But might it
be a good idea to flag if the UID/GID are different so that the use knows
of this.  Also would it be too hard to have the tool identify the next
available UID on the sourcing system for the user.  On the HP systems we
have the next uid available automatically is listed in the field and you
can change it if you want.

The Synchronize option will create users that exist on one server but are
missing on another, and will always use the same UID as the 'source'
server.
It will not bring existing users into sync though, such as by fixing up
mismatches like UID or real name.
