that is one possibility. even greater is op is a 'user', not 'root'. _normally_ / most, if not all unix/linux systems, /home is owned by 'root'. which means *everything*, including a 'user' home directory is own by 'root'. therefore a 'user' running a normal user can do _nothing_ to his/her 'home' directory. therefore a normal user *must* 'sudo' or 'su' to make changes to users 'home' directory. hth. -- The important thing is not to stop questioning. - Albert Einstein CentOS GNU/Linux 6.8 KDE 4.3.4 peace out. tc,hago. g . =+= Tired of having your microsoft os hacked?
