Problem:
1) Add User GUI appears to work fine.
2) GUI show each user with unique goup and id.
3) Nautilus will allow you to breeze through ALL users, ALL files, AND execute 
others scripts.
4) CLI shows each user defined by chown drwx_rx_x

I've posted this previously in much greater detail. I didn't get a
response the first time, so I figured I just did something wrong and no
one wanted to address a silly mistake. So I did a fresh install and I
have the *same exact problem*

Whenever I add a user via the "Add User" GUI it adds a user. However
this, and all users have complete permissions over anyone else (777.)

I am not talking about the Public folder. I am talking about ALL folders
and files.


Terminal Output:

gene...@generic-laptop:/home$ ls -al
total 36
drwxr-xr-x  6 root    root     4096 2009-11-13 04:10 .
drwxr-xr-x 21 root    root     4096 2009-11-13 03:40 ..
drwxr-xr-x  2 bark    bark     4096 2009-11-13 04:07 bark
drwxr-xr-x  2 center  center   4096 2009-11-13 04:10 center
drwxr-xr-x 30 generic generic  4096 2009-11-13 04:15 generic
drwx------  2 root    root    16384 2009-11-13 03:25 lost+found

I can look at the GUI and it tells me that the user has a unique ID, and
that they have their own unique group. However, chown shows that this is
clearly not true.

What am I doing wrong? And don't tell me it is an progression of that
free-lovin' let others peek into your public folder...

I don't have this problem in Xubuntu. The only reason I am sticking to
Ubuntu is its a slicker and there are more utilities.
