Hi Blake,

I did that once in a new installation. In the second generation of my
configuration I changed the example user 'bob' to my own username. It
did not work well.

Due to precautions I was able to go back in as the root user and
adjust the permissions. The only unexpected part was that the symbolic
links for per-user profiles encode the relationship between user name
and uid.

Good luck and kind regards,
Felix Lechner
