UID question

[David Johnson]

I am installing a new server with Redhat Linux, Fedora Core 2.

We have been running Filepro 4.8 since Y2K on a Linux server. But we are 
installing a new server now.

We started our data files in August 1985 on Tandy Xenix. So our user ID 
numbers are all in the 200s.

As I enter these old user ID numbers and names on the new server, it complains

"Creating a user with a UID less than 500 is not recommended. Are you sure 
you want to do this?"

If I used UID numbers in the 500s, is there some way for Filepro to convert 
these to the old numbers for me so the real user name that created a record 
comes up on the screen?

Or is this warning something I should just ignore?
