That's what I thought.

Right, just making sure.

Probably the same issue that caused the original problem.

Looks like ssh isn't creating the correct authentication token (even with
a password). Corinna used to have a program for inspecting the created
tokens -- she might have you run it and report the results at some point.

This is avoid UID clashes between domain users and local ones.

Your assumption is correct. You don't even need to reboot when you change
the UID. What threw me off was that your original /etc/passwd quote
contained the larger UID.

Good. It's likely you'll have to debug it yourself, if other developers
can't reproduce your problem. Good luck.
