Error Msg

[Gerard Seibert]

I am using FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE (GENERIC) #0: MON FEB 23 29:45:55 GMT
2004

I just recently posted about a problem I was having logging into my
computer. I eventually was able to log in. I deleted the existing user and
subsequently recreated the user. I also had to delete the group as well to
complete the operation.

However, although I can access my system, the following error message
appears when I do an su command.

This is the error message:

Mar 4 15:52:42 BudMan su: _secure_path: /usr/home/ges/.login_conf is not
owed by root

The following error message likes to pop up at various times also:

Mar 4 15:55:01 BudMan cron[541]: _secure_path: /usr/home/ges/.login_conf
is not owned by root

The time and date obviously change upon each new occurrence of the
message, as well as the number following 'cron'.

I have read the man on "_secure_path" but I have no idea what I am
supposed to do to correct this problem. Even more mysterious is that this problem
and several others only surfaced after installing KDE 3.2.

I welcome any assistance someone can afford me,


Thanks!
