I've done (something like) as root:
chown --recursive --no-dereference --from=1000 bob /home/bob/
chown --recursive --no-dereference --from=:1000 : ...
I’ve done this many times using Tony’s two account approach. At work we have assigned user
and group IDs. Users often install Linux using defaults and wonder why NFS won’t let them
see their files.
