I don't know how but all the directories and files in my /home directory changed group and ownership. They were listed as - 1000 1000 I don't have a backup and don't remember each group and owner. I wasn't allowed to change the group. I got the following error when I tried - invalid group name 'kent'
This is what I did to "fix" this - addgroup kent which added - kent:x:102: to /etc/group ran - chown -R kent.kent kent in my home directory. My questions: what could cause my /home directory to change like this and is my "fix" appropriate?
