Dear Rob,
Running v4.5.0 (CentOS 7.4 distribution) API version 2.228
Setting it to -1 gives: ValidationError: invalid 'uid': must be at least 1
Need more information on what exactly it is you are doing.

Regards, Callum

Dear All,
When using the API to create an account, if I don't specify the uidnumber I get this error:
missing attribute "uidNumber" required by object class "posixAccount"
I was expecting the uidNumber to function thus: "system will assign one if not provided"
Am I missing something?
You need to set uidnumber to -1 to have DNA automatically assign a value (pre v3.2 the magic number is 999).
