Information

Unowned files and directories may be unintentionally inherited if a user is assigned the same User Identifier (UID) as the UID of the unowned files.

Solution

Either remove all files and directories from SLEM 5 that do not have a valid user or assign a valid user to all unowned files and directories on the system with the "chown" command:

> sudo chown <user > <file>
