I ran into a problem when I deleted and readded a user(see long
description below). Basically, userdel does not delete files except for
those under /home/userX. The files/directories left over in /tmp caused
problems during login. Is there a tool/script to delete userX files in
/tmp and/or other locations? Is this just a side effect of the
permission problem below and thus a del user files script is not neccesary?
Thanks,
Dale
*long description*
I had user login problems and discovered files owned/grouped by userX in
/home/userY. I'm not sure how this happened. I may have user su from a
user acct when creating the other user acct. Deleting/Readding the user
accounts did not fix the problem as there were still files in /tmp owned
by the users.
