Why do you want to edit the uid? The UID is auto assigned on a first come
first serve basis. If you are having problems with permissions when writing
to a NFS share because the UID/GID are different on each Linux hosts, then
you should consider using an OpenLDAP based backend for keeping track of
things.
What backend are you using right now?
