Hello,


I woke up this morning and one of my machines is doing something VERY
strange. root sees the user's files as owned by them:


<bigger>total 13

-rwx--x--x  1 notts  notts   466 Oct 30 18:32 .cshrc

-rwx--x--x  1 notts  notts   619 Oct 30 18:32 .login

-rwx--x--x  1 notts  notts   290 Oct 30 18:32 .mailrc

lrwxrwxrwx  1 root   notts    12 Oct 30 18:32 html -> httpd/htdocs

drwx--x--x  2 notts  notts   512 Jan  1 14:54 security

</bigger>

but if I go in under the users login they see:


<bigger>total 7

Notice the user # and not the name, also for group.


Please, anyone, what is causing this? This is messing something else up
on the system.


Thanx,
