This might sound a bit far fetched, but I can't shake the feeling it might be right. Could it be possible you have 2 admin's in your passwd? vipw doesn't complain when you try something like that, so Would you mind doing a 'ls -ln' (uid/gid numeric) and the an 'echo $UID' as admin. -- greetz Joost [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Seems another administrator here got LDAP working on the server with an admin user as well, hence, when I login now, it uses LDAP with UID 501 instead of passwd admin with 1000, which all the files are owned by.
