I was going from the warning you get from vipw if you try to assign a UID greater than 64k (16 bits).
I stand corrected, thanks. Even 32 bits doesn't get you to 1 million, but we are deviating from the original intent of this thread, about the maximum number of symbolic links in a dir.

Stephen,
Do you intend to have multiple users share UIDs?
As far as I know, UIDs under BSD are only 16 bits wide, which gets you to 64K, not 1 million.
This is incorrect. uid/gid are 32 bit on FreeBSD.
Do they all have to be on the same machine?
Best Regards,
Bernie

Does anyone know the limit of how many symbolic links can be in one directory? For one of our systems, we put a symbolic link in a directory pe r each user. We have an install coming that will be fore one million users. S o we need a symbolic link for each one. But wondering what the the max limit for symbolic links is for one directory.
Thanks.
Sincerely,
Stephen
