lovely. because it ran out of space my old user can't log in to the
gui. I try logging in to a terminal as and it says:
root@Michaels-PC:~# su bmike2
To run a command as administrator (user "root"), use "sudo ".
See "man sudo_root" for details.
bash: bmike2/.bashrc: Permission denied

Server is the component/daemon that listens for a request to connect.

Well, I guess I don't really need to change the directory's name. So I

Add some? :)
Actually it sounds like it's "copying, then deleting" (safe) vs.
"moving", so if you're short diskspace, you'll need to just move it,
change your /etc/passwd and group file for the user/uid, and chown -r
the directory to the new username/uid.

If the account you are trying to change is your current account, it may be
easier to login as root to make the changes (just to prevent any existing
programs in memory trying to use the old username/directory). I'd also use
the command as follows:
usermod -l -md
since an existing username need
I'll use usermod then. Thanks for letting me know about it. so I think this
is the proper syntax. Will this work?
sudo usermod -l -dm

If you are changing your username, there is flags to the usermod command
that can help change the home directory. The -d flag to usermod will update
/etc/passwd with the users home directory, and the -m flag will move the
old directory to the new name. I'm pretty sure that usermod will also take

Thanks. Is that the only thing I have to worry about?

Note that your home directory name appears in the /etc/passwd file so the
system knows where you "live" when you login. If you change the name of
that directory you need to change your entry in the passwd file to match.

Michael, "names" on a network are fake.
There are only IP address in a network .
You "translate a name" into its corresponding IP address via a "name
resolution service"
A "name resolution service" can be as simple as an /etc/hosts file or as
complex as a full blown self-replicating/redundant
