Orignally, ``nobody'' was supposed to exist but own nothing. Processes that don't write to disk can be run as ``nobody'' and a simple find command will show any transgressions. IIRC, some systems logged and/or completely refused writes from processes run as ``nobody'' as a mechanism outside the normal rwx permissions. Cheers; Leon
