Not necessarily. Didn't they change from 500 as first UID to 1000 as first UID with the latest Fedora? Or was that some other distro? Anyway, just do "chown -R matt /home/matt" and that should take care of it. If you can figure out what your default group is, do a chgrp as well. -------------------- BYU Unix Users Group http://uug.byu.edu/ The opinions expressed in this message are the responsibility of their author.
