Someone being root on one machine is a risk for that machine. But if they're also treated as root across a network, that's even more so. I can't imagine why root ownership of files ought to be involved in the /home space, unless you've got someone running as root when they really shouldn't do, and they're saving files in their homespace. -- (This computer runs FC7, my others run FC4, FC5 & FC6, in case that's important to the thread.)
