uids for daemons on a spin

[Martin Langhoff]

Hi,

packaging a custom-configured rsync daemon, I would like to give its
user a stable UID where possible. Looking at the httpd.spec for
reference, it has a hardcoded uid of 48 for the httpd user. Is there a
listing of known uids? A safe range defined for custom packages? Is
there a policy I should be reading...?

Googling for "uid policy fedora -selinux" (or redhat) does not yield
anything particularly interesting.

TIA for any hints...

cheers,
