Maximum number of users

[gfreccia]

How many users is it possible to set on Ubuntu 10.10?
I have an Edubuntu LTSP system for a school (10 clients) and I wish to setup an user for each student/teacher (about 200).

Thank you!

Giacomo.

Users are identified by unique UIDs, a 16 bit number, or 2 ^ 16, making for 65535 users. Newer version of the kernel use 32 bit UIDs.
