Uid management for IM

[Charly Avital]

Not really 2¢. More like 2M.

Thanks, I didn't know about that option (from the man pages):
--------------------------------
--allow-freeform-uid
Disable  all checks on the form of the user ID while generating a new
one.  This option should only be used in very special environments as it
does not ensure the de-facto standard format of user IDs.
--------------------------------

I should have known better: when in doubt, RTFM.

Thanks.
Charly
