Page "GNU Hurd" Paragraph 16
from
Wikipedia
Under Unix, every running program has an associated user id, which normally corresponds to the user that started the process.
A Hurd process, on the other hand, runs under a set of user ids, which can contain multiple ids, one, or none.
For example there is a password server that will hand out ids in return for a correct login password.
