You only need chown, chmod and ls.
# chown -R anthony:anthony /home/anthony
# chmod 755 /home/anthony
After that, 'ls -ld /home/anthony' should look like this (except for the
date shown):
drwxr-xr-x 66 anthony anthony 8.0K 2006-10-30 11:22 /home/anthony/
If you do not understand what the commands above do, I propose you read
something like this:

The Debian Reference Manual is also available via apt (package name:
debian-reference).
