Re: Profile Clone API

[Jim Oberholtzer <midrangel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The new user must have a unique UID, and since the UID can be a GID 
clearly there can only be one of those too. Most profiles are not 
members of a GID ( It's normally *NONE) since that does not help with 
IBM i security.

That's were the "clone" part falls apart. If this user profile is using 
NFS or some of the other "*NIX" servers then the UID/GID have to be 
correct and/or unique.
