Am running 4.5-RELEASE

Last night, I noticed a strange & unwanted change to the directory
ownership that has permeated ALL of the user's home directories. For
example, the home for "sageame" below has "subs2" as the owner of the "../"
directory and the same "trash" appears in every user's home. "subs2" is
another user but appears this way in every home directory. I removed a user
at about the time this happened... did I somehow trash the ownership
structure?

I may have messed up when I used "pw deluser <user>" for the first time
instead of just "remuser". I put the user back, but the one deleted wasn't
the user "subs2"

Does anyone know how this could happen and how do I fix it back...???? HELP!
