[X Newbies] Assorted questions

[Raoul Armfield]

:Just wanted to point out that with linux, you can use usermod 
:to change 
:the "short name" (login), BUT you still would have additional changes

:to make if you want to access any of your files.

One final comment on this topic.  In linux all is contingent on the
UID (user ID)so if you change the username you still have ownership of
the the files and directories.
