Dear Experts,
as you probably know (from another thread) I've just installed Fedora
23 on my dell m6800 and I have a new problem.
I have let the installer create my user and it has given it uid 1000
and gid 1000. This is the standard behavior and I'm used to change it
by manually edit /etc/group and /etc/passwd but this time this
behavior has broken my user. I can't enter at the kde login (before in
the splash screen it was asking for the password of my user than
asking for a password but no user was specified and I got a login erro
when I use my passowrd).
Also removing the user with userdel and readd it with useradd didn't
solve the issue. The only fix I found was to reinstall the whole
system. But now I still have the need to change the user uid and its
group number. Which is the correct way?
Thank you again for the help and Merry Christmas
Walter
So, after manually changing the uid and gid of the user,
did you login as root, or did you run sudo to change the user's home
dir to the new uid and gid?
