[satan@xxxxxxxxxxx (Michael Lankton)]

This is odd.  Last night netscape wouldn't let me save a file because I
didn't have permission.  I didn't have a clue, so I pulled up rxvt,
su'ed, cd .., chown -R satan satan and chgrp -R users satan, then
netscape downloaded the file without protest.  Now I just tried to
download a file 24 hours later and netscape said I didn't have
permission. So I pulled up rxvt and cd .. to /home, and my user
directory which should have been satan users was root root.  What did I
screw up and how do I fix it?  Why would the ownership of my user
directory change to root without me doing so?
Thanks in advance, I'm puzzled by this.
