===Home directory===
 
To find all users on a real-life UNIX-based system, one should look at the home directory folders listed within the system's designated user home directories path. If not altered by a system administrator, the path should by default be /HOME. Each name of a directory shown within this path, is also a valid user that can connect to the system. Based on this, when you go to the CIA data system's user home directory path - enter '''CD /HOME''' - and you enter '''DIR '''or '''LS''' you should see these user home directories listed on the CIA data system home directory, not listed with '''WHO '''command.

User: '''jehoover''' - Password: '''''unknown'''''
 
*The user account of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J._Edgar_Hoover J. Edgar Hoover].
 
Strange to note is that when for example connected as user AMASON on CIA,navigating to your own home - CD /HOME/AMASON - works fine; navigating to any other user home directory of users listed by the '''WHO''' command displays correctly "''Error: Insufficient Permissions.''" yet when trying this for the other home directories not listed by the '''WHO''' command though found on the path /HOME, it won't trigger any error message. The folders appear to be empty and not protected by user permissions.
