Re: login problems after permission change: unable to cd to home
May be it's worth it to post here those permissions?
Btw, don't forget that to access a file you need an 'x' flag set on
all directories in the path to that file including the '/' directory.
You also need an 'x' permission on a directory to be able to do chdir
to those directory (and also an 'x' on all directories in the path).
