I don't remember that conversation (probably my age), but I think I
would have been referring to a classicupgrade from a PDC that had low
ID numbers. It used to be thought that using the RID as the Unix ID
number was a good idea e.g. '513' for Domain Users. This has now
proved not to be a good idea, for fairly obvious reasons.
