April 5, 20233 yr Hi, I want to create new users and specify their UID at creation. I've created some as a test via cli and they don't show in the gui. Reason being I want to script permissions and for NFS shares, I will be using service accounts with static UIDs across multiple vm's mounting NFS to unraid. So consistency is much eaiser to manage. Iwould like to specify static UIDs and GIDs on startup since Unraid doesn't have proper support for groups yet, or maybe ever. Is there anyway I can create users with specific UIDs? Is there a plugin that adds an option to the Add User screen to specify the UID at creation?

There is not. unRAID users are not users in the linux sense. unRAID only really supports user access control at the share level through SMB.
