Caution: Do not rename a user's home folder
Actually, I can see very well why a user would want to change his user name and/or the name of his home folder (as long as the administrator allows it).
Long name, short name
"(a normal user should not even know there exists such a thing as a short user name; all he should know about is his long/real user name)"
Long name, short name
By "normal user", I meant a basic user who will log in by choosing his account from a list instead of having ot type his account name, or will even have autologin activated, and will never do remote login through a shell. |
