Check Text (C-261303r996382_chk)

Verify that all SLEM 5 files and directories on the system have a valid owner with the following command: Note: The value after -fstype must be replaced with the filesystem type. XFS is used as an example. > sudo find / -fstype xfs -nouser If any files on the system do not have a valid owner, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-64940r995775_fix)

Either remove all files and directories from SLEM 5 that do not have a valid user or assign a valid user to all unowned files and directories on the system with the "chown" command: > sudo chown <user > <file>
