Yes, it is. What you've got to do is to twiddle /etc/passwd so that
the uids are the same, and then also look at /tcb/files/auth/f/fax
and alter the u_id# entry so that it matches uucp's (which should be 5
on SCO OS 5.0.x).

Then run `/tcb/bin/authck -av' just to make sure everything's ok with
the tcb subsystem.
