Your suggestions on how to restore the old users makes sense to me;

my very limited knowledge of UNIX. Don't really know what chown
stands for
but that is not necessary at this time. I will learn.
Not necessary, but it's a contraction of ch-ange own-ership; unix has
a long history of cryptic contractions like that. If a pun can be
worked into it as well, all the better.
If I run into more problems I will repost. You got me pointed in
the right
direction. Thanks, --glen
PS. I'm on a roll this week. Turn signals on my pickup broke
Wednesday, the
vacuum cleaner broke Thursday, Friday I discovered 48 pages missing
(the
Trouble Shooting section) in David Pogue's "Mac OS X the Missing
Manual" giving a
whole new meaning to the title. The Blue & White broke Sunday and
today the same
pickup's distributor broke while driving home just about 200 yards/
meters
from my driveway and needed a tow.
Shouldn't that really be described as "on a limp"? My condolences!
