UCX: UCX$Nobody account

The Question is:

  1. Why is the UCX$Nobody Account in Group 3375 instead of
375 as all the other UCX accounts ? Is this correct or can
I change it ?

  2. How can I remove the "Field" from all the group 1
accounts ? See the example below. I must have improperly
performed a command in Authorize that added this to all
group 1 accounts. -------------------------------------+

The Answer is:

>I change it ?

This is the intended behavior.  The group code is different for security
reasons.  You can change it, but you should carefully consider the security
implications of your new choice.

>  2. How can I remove the "Field" from all the group 1

This is the intended behavior of the "Account:" field.  You have (or had at
one time) a group 1 account with the "Account:" field containing "FIELD".
When the identifiers for this account were created, the FIELD identifier
corresponding to group 1 was created.  This id shows as [000001,177777]
when you enter the command:

	UAF> show/id *

If you do not want UIC's displayed in [group,user] format, you need to
remove the corresponding [group,177777] identifiers from RIGHTSLIST.DAT
(and refrain from using the "Account:" field).  In your example, to remove
the FIELD identifier, enter this command:

	UAF> remove/id field
