Woah, check this out: I just installed Debian a couple days ago, and
'thought' is my first user with UID 1000 and GID 1000. Look at what I
found when I was poking around:
[21:35:35]/etc# find / -gid 1000
/usr/doc/procmail/HISTORY.gz
/usr/doc/procmail/README.gz
/usr/doc/procmail/FAQ.gz
/usr/doc/procmail/FEATURES.gz
/usr/man/man8/pppstats.8.gz
/usr/man/man8/chat.8.gz
/usr/man/man8/pppd.8.gz
/usr/man/man1/pon.1.gz
/var/catman/cat1/newgrp.1.gz
/proc/244
/proc/285
/home/thought
/home/thought/.lynxrc
/home/thought/.zhistory
[21:35:58]/etc#
All of those files have GID 1000 ??? Look:
[21:37:40]/etc# l /usr/doc/procmail
total 19
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1024 Mar 6 21:05 ./
drwxr-xr-x 102 root root 2048 Mar 10 01:02 ../
-rw-r--r-- 1 thought thought 4199 Apr 10 1995 FAQ.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 thought thought 1887 Sep 27 1994 FEATURES.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 thought thought 5982 Oct 31 1994 HISTORY.gz
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 Mar 6 21:05 README.DEBIAN ->
../copyright/procmail
-rw-r--r-- 1 thought thought 2817 Dec 22 1994 README.gz
[21:37:44]/etc#
Why in the WORLD would stuff in /usr/doc/procmail have uid/gid 1000?? The
first file I noticed with gid 1000 was /etc/cron.daily/ppp
Just interesting is all. I'm going to chown all of them right now! :)
