What I normally end up doing is to list the directory with the '-n'

That suggests you set your uid and gid to 4294967295, aka -1, aka 'nobody';
that's probably not a good thing.
Hi Dave,
I changed my uid an gid in my passwd file to 4294967295 because that
is what ls -ln showed. If that is not a good thing to do what is
the right thing to do?
cheers,
