By lock up I mean my system freezes just like I'm using some windows OS and the only thing I can do is turn off the PC. I tried ssh localhost and logged into my machine as the user name but I still get the same thing. This however does not happen when I login as root. Michael Zimmermann wrote:

What do you mean by 'lock up'? What happens when?
Could it be, that the user has a restricted shell, which doesn't allow a cd command? And - second idea - could it be that your actions create some syslog-output, but syslog is blocking (perhaps logging to a second machine, which is not there)?
I'd like to help your vision with my blindness, but please be more specific. .o)
