Dear Managers ,

 This problem is really wierd ,

 The users directory on one of our As200 servers
 running 4.0f patch kit 1 , shows the owner as
 183 , now this owner does not exist on the system
  nor is it the uid of any existing owner .

 A ls -l of the /usr directory is given below.

      drwxr-xr-x 3 root system 6656 Nov 30
1999 sbin
drwxr-xr-x 9 root system 512 Nov 30 1999
share
drwxr-xr-x 8 root system 2560 Jan 27 13:51
shlib
drwxr-xr-x 3 root system 512 Nov 30 1999
skel
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root system 12 Dec 5 1999
spool -> ../var/spool
drwxr-xr-x 19 root system 512 Jan 27 13:15
sys
drwxr-xr-x 3 root system 512 Nov 30 1999
tcb
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root system 10 Dec 5 1999
tmp -> ../var/tmp
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root system 5 Dec 5 1999
ucb -> ./bin
drwxrwxr-x 9 183 system 512 Nov 25 11:17
users
drwxrwxr-x 26 root system 512 Dec 3 1999
var
niv-stn> pwd
/usr

  The users are really after my blood , wrt this .

 Any help would be a real relief .

 regards
 
  Dominic
