What is my uid/gid?


I am not totally sure, I just want confirmation on this. What exactly is my user settings? I mean the numeric values, I only have one user account created, and during the adduser process, when it said to set the userid and guid, I pressed enter for the next available slot, so what would that be for uid and gid???

Not sure, but you must be able to figure this out if you have a "control center" or "System settings" under which u wud have User Groups and graphical tools for getting details!
