While you may see files as being owned by yourself based on the username, the system sees them based on the numeric user ID. The files owner ID has to be the same ID as the log-on. You can see which user ID owns the files with: "ls -n" When you moved files, did you change ownership? When you created the new user, did you set the user ID appropriately? -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
