MINUID for useradd command?

[ccox]

Is there a way on HPUX 11.i to change the default minimum UID that is auto-assigned? by default it will assign any used UID higher than 99. can this be changed to 499, as an example?

I know this can be performed by writing a wrapper around the useradd, I was hoping for a more straightforward option.

No, the value is hard-coded.

Plan B. Fill in all the passwd entries with UID's > 99 and <= 499 with dummy, disabled, entries.

Thanks Clay - It wasn't what I wanted to hear; But it's the answer I needed.
