Hello,
since the last WHM update I have problems with the new accounts, but only the three new firts accounts.
The error is that WHM assigns a wrong UID because it is already used by some cpanel files.
The Cpanel support says that the low UID it's a recent change by design :-? but in my cpanel installation the new usernames get an UID of 500 or 501 or 502 and it affects the disk usage and what makes me worry is what happen if I delete these accounts?
For example, If I'll create 3 new accounts the files below will be owned by the new username/groupname
