Question usermod, beyond passwd & shadow


As I understand it, usermod can change a user's UID in...
/etc/passwd
/etc/shadow
and the UID on all files in an under user's home directory.

But /etc/samba/smbpasswd also contians UIDs and would seem to need changing if that UID was pressent.

Does anybody know of other files containing UID references?
