Sir,
I am tried Ubuntu 8.04 live cd in pc already having RHEL4 OS.
I try to access Home directory as R/W. Hence i use chmod command in root
user of ubuntu. After that i tried to boot PC in RHEL4 normal user it says
home/user directory not available and are you wish to create at root
directory now. But rootuser is working. After checking, it was found that
/home having ower of '999' instead of 'root' and all the subdirectory having
same owner. Then i changed it to original owner and permission, now it is
working fine.
My question is who is the owner '999'?
I request the experts to explain the same.
N.Padmanathan,
Ooty.
