    Default logwatch UID

    Does anyone happen to know how to correspond the logwatch UID with an actual user? I've been looking around and haven't figured it out yet.

    Thanks.

    It's the respective account owner in /etc/passwd, so:

    grep UID /etc/passwd and the account name is the first field.

    Okay, that makes sense now that I look at it. I've just never been too clear on where the UIDs came from or how they were assigned (still a little unclear on the latter, frankly). Thanks.
