You can find out if files in your home directory are
owned by a user other than yourself by running in your home directory:

find . ! -user username -ls

This will give you a list of the files with the wrong ownership.

Good suggestion. You might want to pipe that to a text file so that you
can easily view it if the output is too long:

find . ! -user username -ls > ownership
