[Users] Re: OpenVZ template confusion

[Sean Whitney]

I don't.

When I use vzctl create <VEID> and it untar's the template file, it is  
changing the UID/GID of the home directories in the tar file from the  
original UID/GID, to the UID/GID that the same individuals have on the  
HN.

If I peek inside the template file my UID is 1001.

On the HN my uid is 501.

When I create the VE, my UID inside the VE is now 501, screwing up all  
kinds of permissions.
