When I installed 11.1 the other day I mistyped the user name and ended up with having "fed" instead of "fred" as my user name and consequently the home directory is also named "fed". I want to change it to "fred". If I booted into the oS with init 1, issued the command chown -R fred.users /home/fed and then altered in Yast's User Management the user "fed" to "fred" (after logging in as root) and also renamed the current home directory to "fred" and rebooted the system, would this rectify the typing error I made - with no ill effects on the system? (Oh yes- I would also clean out the /tmp directory.) Any suggestions (polite ones of course) would be most welcome. Ciao. -- "I do not instruct the uninterested; I do not help those who fail to try.
