Haha, I did something similar to this once; I had screwed up what group I was in as well.<br>After a while, about a four days, I realized that I had not received an email in a while. <br>It was a simple fix, but I had a ton of mail to read through...<br>

I guess /etc/sudoers has my name rather than uid listed, so I was in, made changes, golden.<br>

As far as I understand, */etc/sudoers* assigns privileges bases on user<br>

So, yes. You don't have to worry about your *uid* or your *gid* in that<br>
regard.<br>

Thanks for helping out, Jake. I didn't realize it until now, but because my account was messed up, fetchmail wasn't giving me incoming mail in the usual way and it was piling up in /var/mail with a name beginning with "BOGUS". I was at the time a bogus user, I guess.<div class="HOEnZb">
