When I create a new user with login in id of ted, I can (as super user) look at his directory ls -ali and can see that ted owns the files. However, when ted logs in and looks at his files (.profile) the owner is the user id i.e. 100 and NOT ted. Does anyone have any comments about this. I do not believe that any one has gotten into the system to corrupt or mess with me. Thanks -- Brian A. Young | young@hamavnet.com | Who gives a rip!
