Grex Test Item 138: Testing high UIDs (mju)
Entered by testhigh on Tue Aug 8 16:02:46 UTC 1995:

This is a test item, to see how PicoSpan copes with users with high
UID's.

11 responses total.

Here's a response by the same user.

Here's a test to see of Picospan will accept very high and very low
UID's in the *same item*.

This is a test to see if anybody will explain to me what a UID is....


#4 of 11 by remmers on Tue Aug 15 12:18:21 1995:

    UID = User IDentification number. On a Unix system, every account
    has one. It's the handle by which the system "knows" the user.

how do you set what your UID is?

(boy the UID's got high)

This is your UID
This is your UID on drugs
Any questions?


#9 of 11 by lee on Mon Dec 16 02:55:36 1996:

Yes.  Do they ever come down from the high and need to be re-fed pixie sticks?


#10 of 11 by orinoco on Wed Dec 18 20:50:03 1996:

I wouldn't know, although stuffing pixie sticks into the disk drive can only
make things worse, belive me.

Yet another test of what happens hitting gratitous numbers after read. Quite
facinating.

"How does a hummingbird make his hum?"

"ON a hearty diet of sugar water and flower nectar, that's how. Imagine the
hum you would make after eating about 150 pixie stix."
