The last sentence in the Warning section reads, "The best solution to this problem is to remove all "unowned" files from the system when the user that created them is deleted." If prince had been a web developer and had created a lot of files in the web document root, this would definitely not be the best solution. Can we change this last sentence to read: One solution to this problem is to remove all "unowned" files from the system when the user that created them is deleted. Another solution is to manually assign a different owner to "unowned" files. The root user can find these files and directories by running: find / -nouser -o -nogroup 2> /dev/null
