Keep UID above 501 for login window account display
Authored by: Henry Yuan on Jan 05, '05 08:19:29PM

Hi, guys, I am trying to create a mysql user in Mac OS X 10.1.5, and I found this trick or feature does not work.

By either NetInfo Manager or shell script, whenever uid was set to a certain value, no matter it was above 500 or below 501, the invisible user still show in login window. Yes, it did not show in Users panel in System Prefs, but show in login window. I have tried logout and shutdown.

Did I miss something? Is it a bug in Mac OS X 10.1.5? I have not tried other eariler Mac OS 10.1.x version...

Thanks.
Henry
