I recently copied a file as the root user to my users's home directory. Ever since that my user has not been able to go to its home directory because "permission is denied". I have already chowned the directory so that it is owned by the user but still i'm getting the error.

(OS: Debian Lenny)

Can canyone help?

Check that the directory is also readable by the user. So, for a home directory the octal permissions should typically be 700 or rwx------
