> changeToSecureUid.sh might collide with existing user if it is not a local user but a network managed user
> Currently we are doing 
> {code:java}
> function find_available_uid() {
>  for ((i=1001; i<=2000; i++))
>  do
>    grep -q $i /etc/passwd
>    if [ "$?" -ne 0 ]
>    then
>     newUid=$i
>     break
>    fi
>  done
> }
> {code}
> This will only check local user. Network manged users are not directly present inside passwd file.
