Eek, yes that is a problem.. Permissions are done with UID/GID; if you have multiple users with the same UID or GID, those users will have control over other users' files (with matching UID/GIDSs).. I don't know what could cause it, except a screwy script.. I've never had that happen. -Mitch "When all your plans fail, backup, re-group and press on.
