I was trying to create a user with a userid of 53205 as it should match a user on another (Linux) system, but the Web interface to the ReadyNAS gave me an error about incorrect userid. I could easily create the user from a root shell using useradd and the user surely exists from the Linux perspective. Why wouldn't the web interface allow this userid?
Though you can add a user with a specified UID using the administration page, there's a limitation set on this (I tried setting but it won't let me past 32766, I get the same error). If you are comfortable using SSH then you might be able to do that from that end or might be able to set a higher bar on the UID range.
Other Community members might be able to help on this.
